1- Make a library in C 2- Call and use it in MASM

The teacher asked to do the two tasks given in the title,and the only hint he gave is that the library file will have extension ".lib" . I have tried to make a static library using Code Blocks, and it has ".a" extension instead of .lib. Now how do I call and use this library in MASM, I have no idea. Please Help!

A .a file is a static library on Linux / UNIX. Code Blocks is cross-platform, but often found on Linux, so I wouldn't be surprised if you were running it there.

A .lib file is a static library on Windows. MASM is the Microsoft (Windows) assembler.

You're not using the right toolchain for your platform. Or potentially, you're not even working on the right platform.
