C programming can be very tedious when one doesn’t have access to the highly useful standard functions. This project is about understanding the way these functions work, implementing and learning to use them. You will create your own library. It will be helpful since you will use it in your next C school assignments.
In this project, students were challenged to recreate a set of functions that already exist within the Standard C Library, among some custom ones.
LIBC functions:
ft_isalpha | ft_strlen | ft_strlcpy | ft_strrchr | ft_atoi |
ft_isdigit | ft_memset | ft_strlcat | ft_strncmp | ft_calloc |
ft_isalnum | ft_bzero | ft_toupper | ft_memchr | ft_strdup |
ft_isascii | ft_memcpy | ft_tolower | ft_memcmp | |
ft_isprint | ft_memmove | ft_strchr | ft_strnstr |
Custom functions:
ft_substr
char *ft_substr(char const *s, unsigned int start, size_t len);
Allocates with malloc and returns a substring from the string ’s’. The substring begins at index ’start’ and is of maximum size ’len’.
ft_strjoin
char *ft_strjoin(char const *s1, char const *s2);
Allocates with malloc and returns a new string, which is the result of the concatenation of ’s1’ and ’s2’.
ft_strtrim
char *ft_strtrim(char const *s1, char const *set);
Allocates malloc and returns a copy of ’s1’ with the characters specified in ’set’ removed from the beginning and the end of the string.
ft_split
char **ft_split(char const *s, char c);
Allocates malloc and returns an array of strings obtained by splitting ’s’ using the character ’c’ as a delimiter. The array must end with a NULL pointer.
ft_itoa
char *ft_itoa(int n);
Allocates malloc and returns a string representing the integer received as an argument. Negative numbers must be handled.
ft_strmapi
char *ft_strmapi(char const *s, char (*f)(unsigned int, char));
Applies the function ’f’ to each character of the string ’s’, and passing its index as first argument to create a new string (with malloc(3)) resulting from successive applications of ’f’.
ft_striteri
void ft_striteri(char *s, void (f)(unsigned int, char));
Applies the function ’f’ on each character of the string passed as argument, passing its index as first argument. Each character is passed by address to ’f’ to be modified if necessary.
ft_putchar_fd
void ft_putchar_fd(char c, int fd);
Outputs the character ’c’ to the given file descriptor.
ft_putstr_fd
void ft_putstr_fd(char *s, int fd);
Outputs the string ’s’ to the given file descriptor.
ft_putendl_fd
void ft_putendl_fd(char *s, int fd);
Outputs the string ’s’ to the given file descriptor followed by a newline.
ft_putnbr_fd
void ft_putnbr_fd(int n, int fd);
Outputs the integer ’n’ to the given file descriptor.
Custom functions - List manipulation:
ft_lstnew
t_list *ft_lstnew(void *content);
Allocates (with malloc(3)) and returns a new node. The member variable ’content’ is initialized with the value of the parameter ’content’. The variable ’next’ is initialized to NULL.
ft_lstadd_front
void ft_lstadd_front(t_list **lst, t_list *new);
Adds the node ’new’ at the beginning of the list.
ft_lstsize
int ft_lstsize(t_list *lst);
Counts the number of nodes in a list.
ft_lstlast
t_list *ft_lstlast(t_list *lst);
Returns the last node of the list.
ft_lstadd_back
void ft_lstadd_back(t_list **lst, t_list *new);
Adds the node ’new’ at the end of the list.
ft_lstdelone
void ft_lstdelone(t_list *lst, void (del)(void));
Takes as a parameter a node and frees the memory of the node’s content using the function ’del’ given as a parameter and free the node. The memory of ’next’ must not be freed.
ft_lstclear
void ft_lstclear(t_list **lst, void (del)(void));
Deletes and frees the given node and every successor of that node, using the function ’del’ and free(3). Finally, the pointer to the list must be set to NULL.
ft_lstiter
void ft_lstiter(t_list *lst, void (*f)(void *));
Iterates the list ’lst’ and applies the function ’f’ on the content of each node.
ft_lstmap
t_list *ft_lstmap(t_list *lst, void *(*f)(void *), void (*del)(void *));
Iterates the list ’lst’ and applies the function ’f’ on the content of each node. Creates a new list resulting of the successive applications of the function ’f’. The ’del’ function is used to delete the content of a node if needed.
