Output
To call C code from Python on a Linux machine, you can use the ctypes module in Python to create a shared library (.so file) from your C code and then call functions from that shared library. Here are the steps to achieve this:
1. Write the C code:
Create a C source file called `magic.c` with the following content:
| #include <stdio.h>
int do_add(int a, int b) {
return a + b;
}
|
2. Compile the C code:
Compile the `magic.c` file into a shared library using the following command:
| gcc -shared -o libmagic.so -fPIC magic.c
|
3. Write the Python code:
Create a Python script called `test.py` with the following content:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12 | import ctypes
# Load the shared library
libmagic = ctypes.CDLL('./libmagic.so')
# Define the argument and return types of the function
libmagic.do_add.argtypes = [ctypes.c_int, ctypes.c_int]
libmagic.do_add.restype = ctypes.c_int
# Call the C function and print the result
result = libmagic.do_add(3, 4)
print(result)
|
4. Run the Python script:
Run the Python script using the following command:
This should output `7`, which is the sum of `3` and `4`.
By following these steps, you should be able to call C code from Python on a Linux machine using the ctypes module.

Output
Here is a step-by-step guide on how to call C code from Python on a Linux machine:
1. Write the C code:
Create a C source file, let's call it `magic.c`, with the following content:
| #include <stdio.h>
int do_add(int a, int b) {
return a + b;
}
|
2. Compile the C code:
Compile the `magic.c` file into a shared object library using the following command:
| gcc -shared -o libmagic.so -fPIC magic.c
|
This will create a shared object library named `libmagic.so`.
3. Create a Python wrapper:
Create a Python module that will load and call the C function from the shared object library. Create a new file, let's call it `magic.py`, with the following content:
| from ctypes import cdll
lib = cdll.LoadLibrary('./libmagic.so')
def do_add(a, b):
return lib.do_add(a, b)
|
4. Run the Python code:
Now you can run your Python code that calls the C function. Use the following command:
| python3 -c 'import magic; print(magic.do_add(3, 4))'
|
This should print the sum of 3 and 4, which is 7.
That's it! You have successfully called C code from Python on a Linux machine.

Please give me a complete set of instructions for how to make this run, so that when I run this code as-is it will work.
Output
To achieve this, you will need to create a shared library (.so file) containing the C function `do_add` and then use Python's `ctypes` module to load and call the C function from Python.
Here are the step-by-step instructions to make this work:
1. Write the C code for the `do_add` function in a file called `magic.c`:
| #include <stdio.h>
int do_add(int a, int b) {
return a + b;
}
|
2. Compile the C code into a shared library (.so file) using the following command:
| gcc -shared -o libmagic.so -fPIC magic.c
|
3. Create a Python script (`magic.py`) that will load the shared library and call the `do_add` function using `ctypes`:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13
14
15
16 | import ctypes
# Load the shared library
libmagic = ctypes.CDLL('./libmagic.so')
# Define the argument and return types of the function
libmagic.do_add.argtypes = [ctypes.c_int, ctypes.c_int]
libmagic.do_add.restype = ctypes.c_int
# Call the C function from Python
def do_add(a, b):
return libmagic.do_add(a, b)
# Test the function
if __name__ == '__main__':
print(do_add(3, 4))
|
4. Now you can run the Python script using the following command:
5. Alternatively, you can run the Python code directly from the command line using your original command:
| python3 -c 'import magic; print(magic.do_add(3, 4))'
|
This should output `7`, which is the sum of 3 and 4, as expected.

# Call the C function
def do_add(a, b):
return libmagic.do_add(a, b)
if __name__ == '__main__':
result = do_add(3, 4)
print(result)
|
4. Run the Python script:
Run the Python script in the terminal using the following command:
This should output the sum of the two numbers (3 + 4 = 7).
5. Test the Python one-liner:
Now you can run the Python one-liner you mentioned in the question:
| python3 -c 'import magic; print(magic.do_add(3, 4))'
|
This should also output the sum of the two numbers (3 + 4 = 7).
By following these steps, you should be able to call a C function from Python on a Linux machine successfully.
