My work on the 42 get_next_line project (here without the bonus part).
The aim of this project is to make you code a function that returns a line, read from a file descriptor.
This project will not only allow you to add a very convenient function to your collection, but it will also allow you to learn a highly interesting new concept in C programming: static variables.
char *get_next_line(int fd);| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| Read line | correct behavior |
| NULL | nothing else to read or an error has occured |
External Functions
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
| read() | A line has been read |
| malloc() | EOF has been reached |
| free() | An error happened |
I wrote this code to be as easy to understand as possible because it was coded for a video tutorial, which explains why I left some comments inside the main function.
I made two videos about this project!
