💖 SDL_JoystickNumHats(3) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the SDL API Reference — yes it's giving vintage, yes it's from 2001, and yes we are still obsessed with it. sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, let's talk about hats. no not the ones on your head. joystick hats. iykyk.

✨ NAME ✨

SDL_JoystickNumHats — count the hats on your joystick, fr fr 🎩

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include "SDL.h"

int SDL_JoystickNumHats(SDL_Joystick *joystick);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, this function returns the number of hats available from a previously opened SDL_Joystick. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💅

key word: previously opened. she's not opening anything for you, she's just telling you how many hats are already sitting on that joystick you opened. don't come for her with a raw pointer that was never opened, okay? 🙈

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

the number of hats. literally just that. the count. the hat census. 👑
