The answer lies in you use it. 42 encourages using all available resources to learn . Using a GitHub repository to understand the scope of an exam is part of the "research" phase of your education. However, the school’s "Molinette" and the exam environment are designed to ensure you truly understand the code you write. The 42ExamMinerBasic is a practice field, not a "cheat sheet." Conclusion
The 42 exams are proctored in a controlled environment without internet access. If you copy-paste the logic from the README , you will fail the actual test.
Use the tool provided in the repository to "mine" your code for errors. If the miner finds a bug, go back to your logic and fix it manually.
