I may be wrong, but it is my understanding that mips is an architechure. thus all you should need to do is find a mips box with a c compiler, and build it.

prolly not that simple in reality, but that is supposed to be why unix was superior, and why having a kernel written mostly in C was portable. all you needed was a compiler to build with.

QEMU supports MIPS emulation, but I'm not sure if it is the appropriate solution to this problem...

Second post regarding how to cheat your homework.

Check the response I gave you on the other post.

I would be more helpful, provide examples, links, explanations; but seems you are not interested to learn, so I'm not willing to teach.

Do you know what a compiler is?

man gcc

seriously.

Or if you aren't familiar with gcc (for some very weird reason), you could try google. Say "crosscompiling for mips" the top result looks pretty good.
