This is the README file for the "get_next_line" project.
The "get_next_line" function is a function that reads a file line by line. It is a useful function to have when working with files that have a large amount of data or when you need to process data line by line.
To use the "get_next_line" function, you need to include the appropriate header file and call the function with the file descriptor and a pointer to a string where the line will be stored. The function will return 1 if a line was read successfully, 0 if the end of the file was reached, or -1 if an error occurred.
Here is an example of how to use the "get_next_line" function:
#include "get_next_line.h"
int main() {
int fd = open("example.txt", O_RDONLY);
char *line = NULL;
int ret;
while ((ret = get_next_line(fd, &line)) > 0) {
printf("%s\n", line);
free(line);
}
if (ret == 0) {
printf("End of file reached\n");
} else {
printf("An error occurred\n");
}
close(fd);
return 0;
}
