How to execute a shell script from C in Linux?

Question

How can I execute a shell script from C in Linux?

Answer 1

A simple way is.....

#include 
#include 


#define SHELLSCRIPT "\
#/bin/bash \n\
echo \"hello\" \n\
echo \"how are you\" \n\
echo \"today\" \n\
"
/*Also you can write using char array without using MACRO*/
/*You can do split it with many strings finally concatenate 
  and send to the system(concatenated_string); */

int main()
{
    puts("Will execute sh with the following script :");
    puts(SHELLSCRIPT);
    puts("Starting now:");
    system(SHELLSCRIPT);    //it will run the script inside the c code. 
    return 0;
}
