Copying and pasting to and from other programs

Hi, as the title says, I want to Copy and paste to and from other
programs, obviously, in vim.
I've tried this, but it's not working as I expected:

vnoremap <C-c> y
vnoremap <C-v> p
nnoremap <C-v> ip
map! <C-c> y
map! <C-v> p

My OS is ubuntu, just in case it matters.

Thank you
