Origin provides embedded python environment, so that you can either run python in Origin (support both command line and .py file), or use a PyOrigin module to access Origin from Python.

The embedded Python in Origin could be either version 3.3.5 or version 2.7.8 and it can be switched by asystem variable @PYV. When @PYV = 3 (Default), the embedded Python is 3.3.5, while if @PYV = 2, it is 2.7.8. To set value for a system variable, click Tools:System Variables to open the Set System Variablesdialog.
