libft.a - My Very First Own Library!!
Libft is a custom library consisting of various functions. You can use them in any C project so it's a valuable asset to my programming journey!
- Clone the repository or download the source code files.
- Compile the using the provided Makefile by simply running:
$ make
- Create a main to test out the individual functions.
The library provides a collection of functions categorized into different parts.
In this section, you will find functions that replicate standard libc functions. These functions have the same behavior as their original counterparts but with names prefixed by "ft_". They include:
- isalpha
- isdigit
- isalnum
- isascii
- isprint
- strlen
- memset
- bzero
- memcpy
- memmove
- strlcpy
- strlcat
- toupper
- tolower
- strchr
- strrchr
- strncmp
- memchr
- memcmp
- strnstr
- atoi
Additionally, there are two functions, calloc and strdup, that require the use of malloc().
This section contains additional functions that are either not present in the libc or have a different form. These functions include:
- ft_substr: Allocates and returns a substring from a string.
- ft_strjoin: Concatenates two strings and returns the result.
- ft_strtrim: Trims specified characters from the beginning and end of a string.
- ft_split: Splits a string into an array of substrings using a delimiter.
- ft_itoa: Converts an integer into a string.
- ft_strmapi: Applies a function to each character of a string and creates a new string.
- ft_striteri: Applies a function to each character of a string, passing the index as an argument.
- ft_putchar_fd: Outputs a character to a file descriptor.
- ft_putstr_fd: Outputs a string to a file descriptor.
- ft_putendl_fd: Outputs a string to a file descriptor, followed by a newline.
- ft_putnbr_fd: Outputs an integer to a file descriptor.
This section focuses on manipulating linked lists. It provides functions to create, modify, and traverse linked lists. The bonus functions include:
- ft_lstnew: Creates a new node.
- ft_lstadd_front: Adds a node at the beginning of a list.
- ft_lstsize: Counts the number of nodes in a list.
- ft_lstlast: Returns the last node of a list.
- ft_lstadd_back: Adds a node at the end of a list.
- ft_lstdelone: Deletes a node and frees its memory.
- ft_lstclear: Deletes and frees a list and its nodes.
- ft_lstiter: Iterates over a list and applies a function to each node.
- ft_lstmap: Iterates over a list, applies a function to each node, and creates a new list.
