Hi thanks for your response!

I have already successfully tried this method of reading from a text file and even saving it to a different one. My problem and lack of understanding focuses on 2 points:

1) How can i return the value to the python program
2) how to directly send data between the 2 programs? I mean how to call the C++ function and send the arguments directly from the python program rather than having the...

I have just started learning programming. I have completed a number of tutorials with regards to Python Basics.

I now want to exchange information between python and C++. For example. I have 2 numbers in python which I call a program written in C, which adds those 2 numbers and returns the result to python.

Which is the simplest way to do this?
