Recode libc's 'printf' function.
It manages the following conversion: cspdiuxX%
It also manages any combination of the following flags: -0.*
Example:

  #include "../2.ft_printf/ft_printf.h"
  #include <stdio.h>

  int main(void)
  {
    int num, hex = 20124;
    int *ptr = &num;
    char *str = "EXAMPLE";

    ft_printf("Integer: %d\n", num);
    ft_printf("Hexadecimal: %0*x\n", 10, hex);
    ft_printf("Pointer address: %p\n", ptr);
    ft_printf("String: |%-15s|\n", str);

    return (0);
  }

Output:

  Integer: 32767
  Hexadecimal: 0000004e9c
  Pointer address: 0x7fff2a63b36c
  String: |EXAMPLE        |

🔧 Usage

The makefile creates a library called "libftprintf.a" that contains ft_printf. You can compile a program with "libftprinf.a".

Example:

   make && make clean
   gcc main.c libftprintf.a

🪲 Debugging

LLDB is a powerful tool that helped me debug this project, specially the GUI. Here is how you can run it:

First, modify your makefile so it compiles with '-g3'.

	@gcc -g3 -Wall -Wextra -Werror -I$(INCLUDES) -c $(SRCS)

At compilation time, compile with '-g3' too.

gcc -g3 main.c libftprintf.a

Then run the following command consecutively:

lldb a.out
b main
run
gui

In the GUI, use 's', 'tab', 'space' & 'o' to explore your program step by step.
