MAT_VARGETSIZE(3)

💖 MAT_VARGETSIZE(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to section 3 of the Library Functions Manual — yes, the library functions girlies, we're in the C-callable era now 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

Mat_VarGetSize — literally calculates the size of a MAT variable in bytes. that's it. that's the whole job. she's a one-trick pony and she ATE 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <matio.h>

size_t
Mat_VarGetSize(const matvar_t *matvar);

like. she's small. she's tidy. she takes one pointer and hands you a number. no drama, no side quests 🦋

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so the Mat_VarGetSize() function calculates the size of a MAT variable matvar in bytes — similar to the MATLAB whos command 🫶

that's the vibe check: you got a variable, you wanna know how chunky it is, and whos-style energy is exactly what you're getting. no cap 📏✨

---

🔥 RETURN VALUES 🔥

the function returns the number of bytes. that's the return value. that's the tea ☕👑

like, the return type is size_t, and the thing it returns is a byte count. she said "here's a number, do with it what you will" 💀

---

not a single error condition listed here, bestie — this page keeps it short and sweet, and we are matching that energy 🙈

---

and that's the whole page!! short king of a manpage, honestly iconic 👑
