A complete standardlib for c for once

standardlib

Finally, an actually usable and maximally efficient C standard library to make C as easy (or easier) than other languages

Documentation link

C Standardlib (Github link) docs: (Docs here)

Features:

• →Zero Overhead
• →Static Inline Functions
• →No macros or #defines
• →No namespace pollution - you can generate your own version with any prefix you like! (and you will own the copyrights for this version)
• →Relies minimally on C libraries
• →Very small - 5K Lines of Code
• →No Linkage Issues or dependency hell
• →Thoroughly Tested - 0 warnings or errors or memory leaks in Valgrind
• →Good documentation
• → Free and open source - no licensing restrictions whatsoever
• →Makes C like Python or Perl or Ruby - or more easy

What is this? Let me elaborate:

Functional Programming Features - map, reduce, filter, List Comprehensions in C and much more!

Expands C's Primitives for easy manipulation of types such as FrozenDict, Set, FrozenSet, FrozenDict, Arrays, and Strings, and provides easy manipulation, modification, alteration and duplication of these at a very comfortable level - something very, very rare in C or C++, all without any overhead.

More comfortable IO - read and write entire files with ease, and convert complex types into strings or print them on the screen with ease.

Powerful array operations like transform() help to deal with complex problems and programming challenges like dealing with matrices.

A powerful general purpose standard library has anything and everything you need - from find_last_of() to count_vowels() to list_comprehension() to shellescape() to read_file() to string_to_json() to string_to_uppercase() to to_title_case() to map() to reduce() to filter() to list_comprehension() to frozen_dict_new_instance() - everything you would want to make quick and optimally efficient C programs, this has it. And all without the overhead of external linkage - the code will be inlined and will be quicker than anything else.

Helps to make programs hundreds of times faster than other languages with similar ease of creation

You don't want to be waiting a day for an operation to complete when it could take less than an hour.
