## 📜 About Project

> _This project is pretty straight-forward. You will implement your own printf. You will mainly learn how to use variadic arguments._

For detailed information, refer to the [**subject of this project**](README_files/printf_subject.pdf).

	🚀 TLDR: This project consists of coding a library that contains a simplified version 

 		 of the printf function.

> [!NOTE]  

> Because of 42 School norm requirements:

> * Each function can't have more than 25 lines of code.

> * All variables are declared and aligned at the top of each function.

> * Project should be created just with allowed functions otherwise it's cheating.

## 📑 Supported Specifiers

These specifiers are supported by my printf implementation.

| Specifier  | Short Description                                         |

|:----------:|:---------------------------------------------------------:|

| %c         | Print a single character.                                 |

| %s         | Print a string of characters.                             |

| %p         | The void * pointer argument is printed in hexadecimal.    |

| %d         | Print a decimal (base 10) number.                         |

| %i         | Print an integer in base 10.                              |

| %u         | Print an unsigned decimal (base 10) number.               |

| %x         | Print a number in hexadecimal (base 16), with lowercase.  |

| %X         | Print a number in hexadecimal (base 16), with uppercase.  |

| %%         | Print a percent sign.                                     |

## 👨‍💻 Usage

### Requirements

The library is written in C language and thus needs the **gcc compiler** and some standard **C libraries** to run.

### Instructions

**1. Compiling the library**

To compile the library, run:

```shell

$ cd path/to/printf && make

```

**2. Using it in your code**

To use the library functions in your code, simply include its header:

```C

#include "ft_printf.h"

```

and, when compiling your code, add the required flags:

```shell

-lftprintf -L path/to/libftprintf.a -I path/to/ft_printf.h

```
