Introduction

The journey at 42 Schools begins with this foundational project. It challenges students to reimplement certain standard C library functions, along with other utility functions, and compile them into a static library. This serves as a crucial resource for future projects. Adherence to the Norminette coding standards and passing the Moulinette tests are key aspects of this project, ensuring that both peers and automated systems will evaluate your work.

This project demands a solid understanding of the C programming language, including data types, loops, conditionals, functions, and memory management. Students must also develop proficiency in debugging, testing, and documentation to ensure their code is reliable and understandable. Mastery of these skills is essential for tackling the complexities of software development and contributes significantly to the success in the Libft project and beyond.

Contents Overview

This section is divided into four categories:

1. Libc Functions: Standard C library functions reimplemented.
2. Additional Functions: Useful functions for future projects.
3. Bonus Functions: Functions specifically designed for linked list manipulation.
4. Other Components: Includes the Makefile and libft.h header file.

Compiling the library generates object .o files and the static library file libft.a.
