Get Next Line [125 / 100]

Summary

The second project on the 42sp fundamentals track, Get Next Line, is based on the creation of a function that returns line by line from a file pointed to by a file descriptor, covering topics such as reading and describing files, static variables, dynamic allocation memory, pointers, and more.

Project Files

• get_next_line.c get_next_line_bonus.c - main functions (project implementation)
• get_next_line.h get_next_line_bonus.h - header file (prototypes and includes)
• get_next_line_utils.c get_next_line_utils_bonus.c - auxiliary functions (project requirements)

Run the Program

• Make sure you clone the repository with the following command:

$> git clone [email protected]:ArthurSobreira/42_get_next_line.git

• Once cloned, compile the program with the following command (the value of BUFFER_SIZE can be changed if you prefer):

$> cc -Wall -Wextra -Werror -D BUFFER_SIZE=42 main.c src/get_next_line.c utils/get_next_line_utils.c include/get_next_line.h && ./a.out

• Running the binary, the result should look something like this:
