About

The libft project is designed to help you gain a deeper understanding of fundamental C programming concepts and provide you with a library that you can reuse in future projects. It includes implementations of standard library functions, as well as additional functions that can be useful for string manipulation, memory management, linked lists, and more.

The library is written in C and is thoroughly tested to ensure the accuracy and reliability of each function. It serves as an excellent resource for enhancing your programming skills and developing a solid foundation in the C programming language.
