How I redirect python stdout to C stdin using pipelines in linux

Question

I have a python script and I want to use the output of it to be the input of other C program. I want to use pipelines, sintax would be:

python_script.py | C_program

but I don't know how to redirect the pythons stdout to C stdin

Answer 1

Redirection is done by the shell. As long as python script writes to stdout and C_program reads from stdin it should work ok.

Answer 2

Hi.

It seems that you doing all right.

For example, if I need to redirect scripts output to program input, I used such construction:

$ my_script.py | progr

with case if progr accepts arguments in you code.
