📚 Libft

Introduction

Libft is a custom implementation of a standard C library, providing a collection of commonly used functions that are not available by default. This project serves as a foundation for many other projects, offering essential utilities like string manipulation, memory management, linked list operations, and more.

Project Overview

The goal of this project is to create a personal library of functions that replicate or extend the functionality of the standard C library. These functions will be used throughout the 42 curriculum and will be essential tools in future C projects.

Mandatory Part

1. Libc Functions: Re-implement common C standard library functions such as ft_strlen, ft_strcpy, ft_strdup, and others.
2. Additional Functions: Implement additional utility functions like ft_substr, ft_strjoin, ft_split, ft_itoa, etc., which are not part of the standard library but are useful in many programming contexts.

Bonus Part

1. Linked List Functions: Create and manipulate linked lists using functions such as ft_lstnew, ft_lstadd_back, ft_lstmap, etc.
2. Memory Functions: Additional memory manipulation functions.

Installation and Usage

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/cmunoz-g/libft.git

2. Navigate to the Project Directory:

   cd libft

3. Compile the Library:

   make

4. Include in Your Project: Include the libft.h header file in your project and link the libft.a library during compilation:

   #include "libft.h"

   gcc main.c -L. -lft -o my_program
