get_next_line

Overview

get_next_line is a project from the 42 network aimed at implementing a function that reads a single line from a file descriptor. This project helps you grasp file handling, buffer management, and dynamic memory allocation in C.

Project Goals

• Implement the get_next_line function to read lines from a file descriptor one at a time.
• Understand and utilize static variables in C.
• Develop a solution that can handle different buffer sizes and multiple file descriptors.

Core Functionality

The get_next_line function reads and returns a line from a file descriptor, handling end-of-file and errors. It should work for both file input and standard input.
