PS_CIRCLE(3)

💖 PS_CIRCLE — bestie, we're drawing a circle 💖

okay so. this is the manual page for PS_circle, from section 3 (library functions, the fun one). she's short, she's sweet, she draws a circle. no cap. let's go 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <pslib.h>

void PS_circle(PSDoc *psdoc, float x, float y, float radius)

that's it. that's the whole thing. she returns void (so like, nothing, she's mysterious 💅) and she takes a PSDoc *psdoc plus three floats: x, y, and radius.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

PS_circle draws a circle. the middle point of that circle lives at (x, y) — that's her center, her main character position, her whole vibe. 👑

and the circle starts and ends at position (x+radius, y). so like, the pen puts the first dot down at x+radius, y, swoops all the way around, and lands right back there. full 360, ate and left no crumbs. 🌈

now here's where it gets spicy 🔥 — what happens depends on where you call her:

• if you call this function outside a path, she starts a new path for you. fresh start, new era, we love that ✨
• if you call her within a path, she adds the circle as a subpath. nesting energy. cute. 🎀

⚠️ but bestie, listen: if the last drawing operation does not end in point (x+radius, y), then there will be a gab in the path. yes, "gab". that's what the page says, that's the typo, and honestly? we respect it. it means gap — a lil break in your path. don't let your drawing operations leave you hanging at the wrong coordinate or you'll get the gab. 😭
