πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

okay bestie, this is al_fixsqrt(3) from the Library Functions Manual, and it's literally the Allegro 5 API function called al_fixsqrt. slay.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

al_fixed al_fixsqrt(al_fixed x)

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

So this one finds out the non negative square root of x. that's the whole mission, no cap. πŸŽ€

But bestie, if x is negative? 😭 Allegro’s errno is set to EDOM and the function returns zero. literally that's the vibe check, periodt.
