Top 5 C Array Projects

Collections-C

2 2,715 7.6 C

A library of generic data structures for the C language.
mlib

8 791 9.0 C

Library of generic and type safe containers in pure C language (C99 or C11) for a wide collection of container (comparable to the C++ STL).

Project mention: preprocessor stuff - compile time pasting into other files | /r/C_Programming | 2023-12-09

This uses the preprocessing library

WorkOS

The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
Containers

2 162 1.8 C

This library provides various containers. Each container has utility functions to manipulate the data it holds. This is an abstraction as to not have to manually manage and reallocate memory. (by bkthomps)
rotate

4 143 10.0 C

A collection of array rotation algorithms.

Project mention: 10~17x faster than what? A performance analysis of Intel x86-SIMD-sort (AVX-512) | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-06-10

For me there's a strong visual component, perhaps most obvious for my work on array rotation algorithms.

There's also the ability to notice strange/curious/discordant things, and either connect the dots through trying semi-random things, as well as sudden insights which seem to be partially subconscious.
One of my (many) theories is that I have the ability to use long-term memory in a quasi-similar manner to short-term memory for problem solving. My IQ is in the 120-130 range, I suffer from hypervigilance, so it's generally on the lower end due to lack of sleep.
I'd say there's a strong creative aspect. If I could redo life I might try my hand at music.

gear

1 0 2.1 C

C library which provides self-expanding arrays of arbitrary types (by nickeldan)

Project mention: how to i encapsulate data in C | /r/C_Programming | 2023-05-22

If you’ll pardon the shameless plug, I’ve written a small library that provides such arrays.
