ft_printf

Introduction

ft_printf is a project focused on recreating the renowned printf function from the C Standard Library.

This project provides a comprehensive understanding of the C programming language,

especially about variadic functions and memory management.

Features

A lightweight implementation of the printf function in C.

Supports the following conversions:

%c: Print a single character.

%s: Print a string.

%p: Print a void * pointer argument in hexadecimal format.

%d: Print a decimal (base 10) number.

%i: Print an integer in base 10.

%u: Print an unsigned decimal (base 10) number.

%x: Print a number in hexadecimal (base 16) lowercase format.

%X: Print a number in hexadecimal (base 16) uppercase format.

%%: Print a percent sign.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/your_username/ft_printf.git
cd ft_printf
make

This will compile the library and generate a libftprintf.a file.

Usage

Include the header file (ft_printf.h) in your C project:

#include "ft_printf.h"

When compiling your project, link with the libftprintf.a file:

gcc your_c_file.c -L. -lftprintf -o your_program_name
