push_swap (42Porto - 42Cursus)

Grade: 90/100

Description

push_swap is a program that sorts a stack of integers with the minimum instructions possible and an auxiliary stack. Instructions are defined within the subject of the project and they're the only way allowed to manipulate the data in the stacks.

checker is a utility program that, taking the same arguments as push_swap and its outputted instructions, checks if the stack ends up sorted, thus verifying if push_swap is sorting correctly.

Demonstration

Installing and running the project

1- Clone this repository

git clone https://github.com/Kuninoto/42_push_swap

2- Run make

make

3- make clean so that you don't keep those object files that you won't need anymore

make clean

4- Run push_swap with a list of integers of your choice!

./push_swap <nbr> <nbr> <nbr> <nbr> ...

Makefile available targets

make or make all - Makes push_swap
make clean - Deletes all the resulting object files
make fclean - Deletes push_swap and checker
make re - fclean + all
make bonus - Makes checker

Disclaimer

At 42School, almost every project must be written in accordance to the "Norm", the schools' coding standard. As a result, the implementation of certain parts may appear strange and for sure had room for improvement.
