# Get Next Line - 42 Network Project
Get Next Line is a function that reads a line from a file descriptor, designed to efficiently handle large lines and multiple file descriptors, while ensuring proper memory management without relying on external libraries.
It helps in handling file input in C and is a key part of the 42 Network curriculum.
---
## 🚀 Features
- **Reads a line** from a file descriptor, handling multiple reads if the line is too large for a buffer.
- **Memory management**: Ensures dynamic memory allocation for each line.
- **Efficient handling** of multiple file descriptors, allowing you to read from different sources.
---
## 🛠️ Getting Started
### Prerequisites
