libft is a library of C functions rewritten from the standard library, as well as some additional functions that can be useful for C projects.

libft is the first project in the Core-Curriculum within the "42" programming school, this is my interpretation of the assignment with some extra functions that I will add as needed.

To use libft, download the library in the root of your project using the following command line

git clone git@github.com:blueyaGIT/libft.git

git clone https://github.com/blueyaGIT/libft.git

gh repo clone blueyaGIT/libft

This will create a directory called ``libft/`, enter with the command

cd libft

Once inside, create the static library libft.a with the following command

make

libft.a will be inside libft/, now you just need to compile your project including libft/libft.a and adding the header files that contain the functions you want to use, all header files are inside libft/h_files.

#include "libft/libft.h"

The libft library includes the following functions (for more detailed information read the header file, it includes syntax, parameter description, notes, and more relevant information):

• ft_printf(): Print a string including variables of different types.
• get_next_line(): Read the text of a file descriptor until a character n is encountered or the end of the file is reached.

• ft_toupper(): Transforms a char from lowercase to uppercase.
• ft_tolower(): Transforms a char from uppercase to lowercase.

• ft_itoa(): Transforms an int value to its string counterpart.

• ft_lstnew(): Creates a new node type t_list.
• ft_lstadd_front(): Adds a node to the front of the list.
• ft_lstadd_back(): Adds a node to the end of the list.
• ft_lstsize(): Counts the number of nodes belonging to the list.
• ft_lstlast(): Scrolls down the list until the last member is reached.
• ft_lstdelone(): Deletes the contents of the node with the provided function, then frees the node with free() from the standard library.
• ft_lstclear: Completely removes the list, using the provided function for the content and free() to free each of the nodes.
• ft_lstiter(): Iterates the given function on each node of the list.
• ft_lstmap(): Iterate the f() function on each node in the list, saving the result in a new list, if something goes wrong, use the del() function to remove the contents of the new nodes, and free() to remove all nodes from the new list.

• ft_calloc: Performs a dynamic memory allocation and initializes all values to 0.
• ft_free_n_null(): Check if the given pointer is different from NULL, if so perform free() of the standard library and move the pointer to NULL.
• ft_close: Checks if the file descriptor is valid, if so closes it using close() from the standard library.

• ft_memchr: Searches for the first occurrence of the given character within the described memory range.
• ft_memcmp(): Compares two memory ranges, returning 0 if they are equal, >0 or <0 if they are different.

• ft_memset(): This function takes a memory block and sets it to the given value.
• ft_memcpy(): This function copies a source memory block to the destination address.
• ft_memmove(): This function is similar to ft_memcpy(), but handles cases where the source and destination overlap. ft_memmove() avoids this problem by copying the data in an order that depends on the relationship between src and dest.
• ft_bzero(): Sets a memory block at the given address to 0.

• ft_strchr(): Searches for the first occurrence of the given character within the string. If found, returns the address of that location. If not found, returns NULL.
• ft_strrchr(): This function is similar to ft_strchr(), but starts searching from the end of the string src. It returns the address of the last place where the characterc appears. If not found, it returnsNULL`.
• ft_strncmp(): Compares the 2 given strings up to n characters or until a difference is found. Returns the difference or 0 if they are equal.
• ft_strnstr(): This function searches for the first occurrence of the array needle in the array haystack, but does not search beyond len characters in haystack. If it finds needle, it returns the start address of needle. If not found, it returns NULL.

• ft_strlen(): Counts the number of characters in a string.
• ft_strlcpy(): Copies a string from source to destination up to a specified size.
• ft_strlcat(): Concatenates a source string to the end of a destination string, up to a specified size.
• ft_atoi(): Converts a string to an integer.
• ft_strdup(): Creates a copy of a string.
• ft_substr(): Extracts a substring of a given string from a specified index with a given length.
• ft_strjoin(): Joins two strings into a new string.
• ft_strtrim(): Removes the characters defined in set from the beginning and end of the string src, and stores the result in a new string.
• ft_split(): Splits a string into a string array using the char c as delimiter.
• ft_strmapi(): Applies a function to each character of a string and stores the results in a new string.
• ft_striteri(): Applies a function to each character in a string.

• ft_isalpha(): Checks if the given character is a letter in the ASCII table.
• ft_isdigit(): Checks if the given character is a digit in the ASCII table.
• ft_isalnum(): Check if the given character is a letter or a digit in the ASCII table.
• ft_isascii(): Check if the given character is in the ASCII table.
• ft_isprint(): Check if the given character is printable according to the ASCII table.

• ft_putchar_fd(): Writes a char to a given file descriptor.
• ft_putstr_fd(): Writes a string to a given file descriptor.
• ft_putendl_fd(): Writes a string followed by a newline to a given file descriptor.
