Compiling code in Ubuntu and running on windows

Navigation

Hello, I was wondering how can I compile a C code in Ubuntu and that
run in Windows. I tried to put the extension ".exe" at the end
of the file, but when I sent the executable to my teacher he said
which did not rotate.

You can create executables for windows using mingw-w64 . Entering the following command, we can see the list of available packages: 

apt-cache search mingw-
  

Among them: 

mingw-w64 - Development environment targeting 32- and 64-bit Windows
  

After you install it: 

sudo apt-get install mingw-w64
  

I created my executable (32 bits) from the /usr/bin folder, like this: 

sudo i686-w64-mingw32-gcc-win32 helloworld.c -o helloworld.exe
  

For 64-bit: 

sudo x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc helloworld.c -o helloworld64.exe
  

Result:
