How do I restart a program based on user input?

by

This line will unconditionally restart the running program from scratch: 

os.execl(sys.executable, sys.executable, *sys.argv)

One of its advantage compared to the remaining suggestions so far is that the program itself will be read again.

This can be useful if, for example, you are modifying its code in another window.
