ft_printf

Description

ft_printf is a custom implementation of the standard printf function in C, handling formatted output with various specifiers.

Features

• Format Specifiers:
  • %c - Prints a single character.
  • %s - Prints a string (as defined by the common C convention).
  • %p - The void * pointer argument has to be printed in hexadecimal format.
  • %d - Prints a decimal (base 10) number.
  • %i - Prints an integer in base 10.
  • %u - Prints an unsigned decimal (base 10) number.
  • %x - Prints a number in hexadecimal (base 16) lowercase format.
  • %X - Prints a number in hexadecimal (base 16) uppercase format.
  • %% - Prints a percent sign.

Installation

To get started with this project, simply clone the repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/Mouad-El-Asri/ft_printf.git

Usage

Once you've cloned the repository, you can compile the ft_printf project by following these steps:

1. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd ft_printf

2. Compile the project using make:

   make

3. To test your implementation, you can include ft_printf in your C programs:

   #include "ft_printf.h"
   
   int main() {
       ft_printf("Hello, World! %d\n", 42);
       return 0;
   }

4. You can then compile and run your program:

   gcc main.c -L . -l ftprintf
   ./a.out

Example

Here’s a basic example demonstrating how ft_printf works:

#include "ft_printf.h"

int main() {
    int num = 1234;
    char c = 'A';
    
    ft_printf("This is a number: %d\n", num);
    ft_printf("This is a character: %c\n", c);
    return 0;
}

Output:

This is a number: 1234
This is a character: A
