ft_printf Project - 42 Network

Description

This project, part of the 42 network's curriculum, aims to recreate the standard C library function printf. The ft_printf function will be able to handle various format specifiers, modifiers, and flags, just like the original printf function.

Features

• Supports basic format specifiers (e.g., %c, %s, %d, %x, %f).
• Handles width and precision modifiers.
• Supports length modifiers (e.g., hh, h, l, ll).
• Implements some flags (e.g., 0, -, +, #, ).
• Handles conversion of floating-point numbers with a specified precision.

How to Use

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/aminezagh/ft_printf.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd ft_printf

3. Compile the project:

   make

4. Include the ft_printf.h header in your project and use the ft_printf function:

   #include "ft_printf.h"
   
   int main() {
       ft_printf("Hello, %s!\n", "world");
       return 0;
   }

5. Compile your project with the libftprintf.a library:

   gcc -o my_program my_program.c libftprintf.a

6. Run your program:

   ./my_program
