My own C standard library — the foundation every later 42 project is built on.

The problem

Write my own C standard library, used by every later 42 project.

What I built

• 23 libc functions (strlen, memmove, strlcat, atoi, calloc...).
• 11 extra helpers (split, strjoin, itoa, strtrim...).
• 9 linked-list functions for the bonus.

The hard part

Getting the details the manual pages only hint at: overlapping memory in memmove, strlcat return values, and protecting every allocation.

Built with

• C
• Makefile
• valgrind
• Norminette

More projects

• metro · Lisbon metro sim in pixel art: watch the four lines run, step into any station, board a train and ride it.
• call_me_maybe · Turns a sentence into a JSON function call with a 0.6B model using constrained decoding — parseable by construction, not by luck.
• codexion · Multithreaded twist on the Dining Philosophers: coders compete for shared dongles, with FIFO/EDF scheduling.
• fly-in · Drone fleet routing: Dijkstra pathfinding, turn-based scheduling and a pygame replay.
• a-maze-ing · Maze generator with multiple algorithms, pathfinding solvers and terminal visualization.
• push_swap · Highly optimized sorting with two stacks and a tiny set of allowed operations.
• ft_printf · printf rebuilt from scratch: chars, strings, pointers, decimals, unsigned and hex.
• get_next_line · Reads a file descriptor one line at a time with careful dynamic memory handling.
