+# ft_str_split: String Splitting Project in C
+
+## Project Overview
+This project-based learning assignment challenges you to implement a function that splits a string into an array of strings based on a specified delimiter character. The project will enhance your understanding of string manipulation, memory allocation, and pointer arithmetic in C.
+
+## Learning Objectives
+- Deepen understanding of string manipulation in C
+- Practice dynamic memory allocation and management
+- Implement robust error handling
+- Understand pointer arithmetic and array management
+- Develop efficient algorithms for string processing
+
+## Function Prototype
+```c
+char **ft_str_split(char const *s, char c);
+```
+
+### Parameters
+- `s`: The string to be split
+- `c`: The delimiter character used to identify where the string should be split
+
+### Return Value
+- An array of new strings resulting from the split
+- NULL if the allocation fails
+
+## Requirements
+
+1. **Function Behavior:**
+    - The function must split the string `s` using the character `c` as a delimiter
+    - The array must end with a NULL pointer
+    - The resulting strings must not contain the delimiter character
+
+2. **Memory Management:**
+    - You must allocate memory for the result array and each substring
+    - All allocations must be properly handled with error checking
+    - No memory leaks are allowed
+
+3. **Edge Cases:**
+    - Handle empty strings properly
+    - If `c` does not appear in `s`, the result should be an array with a single element containing the entire string
+    - If `s` is NULL, return NULL
+    - If multiple delimiters appear consecutively, they should result in empty substrings
+
+## Project Steps
+
+### Step 1: Planning the Algorithm
+Begin by designing your algorithm. Consider:
+- How to count the number of resulting substrings
+- How to allocate the right amount of memory
+- How to extract each substring efficiently
+
+### Step 2: Implementing Helper Functions
+Consider implementing these helper functions:
+- `count_words`: Count how many words will result from the split
+- `word_length`: Calculate the length of a word until the next delimiter
+- `extract_word`: Extract a single word from the source string
+
+### Step 3: Implementing the Main Function
+Implement the `ft_str_split` function using your helper functions.
+
+### Step 4: Testing
+Create a comprehensive test suite that covers:
+- Normal cases with various delimiters
+- Edge cases (empty strings, no delimiters, etc.)
+- Error cases (memory allocation failures)
+
+## Example Usage
+
+```c
+#include <stdio.h>
+#include <stdlib.h>
+
+char **ft_str_split(char const *s, char c);
+
+void print_result(char **result) {
+     if (!result)
+          return;
+     
+     for (int i = 0; result[i]; i++) {
+          printf("'%s'\n", result[i]);
+     }
+}
+
+void free_result(char **result) {
+     if (!result)
+          return;
+     
+     for (int i = 0; result[i]; i++) {
+          free(result[i]);
+     }
+     free(result);
+}
+
+int main() {
+     char *str = "Hello,world,this,is,a,test";
+     char **result = ft_str_split(str, ',');
+     
+     printf("Original: '%s'\n", str);
+     printf("Split by ',': \n");
+     print_result(result);
+     
+     free_result(result);
+     return 0;
+}
+```
+
+## Evaluation Criteria
+
+Your implementation will be evaluated based on:
+1. **Correctness**: Does it handle all required cases correctly?
+2. **Memory Management**: Are there any memory leaks?
+3. **Code Quality**: Is the code clean, well-organized, and properly commented?
+4. **Efficiency**: Is the algorithm efficient in terms of time and space complexity?
+
+## Advanced Challenges
+
+Once you've completed the basic implementation, consider these extensions:
+1. Modify your function to handle multiple delimiter characters
+2. Implement a version that uses a string as a delimiter instead of a single character
+3. Create a version that keeps empty substrings as separate entries in the result array
+4. Optimize your code for maximum performance with large strings
+
+## Resources
+
+- C string manipulation functions (`strlen`, `strcpy`, etc.)
+- Memory allocation functions (`malloc`, `free`)
+- Pointer arithmetic in C
+- String tokenization techniques
+
+## Conclusion
+
+This project will strengthen your C programming skills, particularly in the areas of string manipulation and memory management. The ability to split strings is a fundamental operation in many programming applications, making this a valuable skill to master.
+
+Good luck with your implementation!
