I think something like this will do (untested)

void runPythonFile(char* myfile)
{
FILE* fileptr = fopen(myfile, 'r'); 
Py_Initialize();
int result = PyRun_SimpleFile(fileptr, myfile);
Py_Finalize();
return result;
}

You should get some ideas by reading the Extending/Embedding section
in the python manual, and then read the relevant sections the Python/C api.
