al_get_timer_speed(3)

🌸 NAME 🌸

al_get_timer_speed — Allegro 5 API

Okay bestie, this is al_get_timer_speed(3) from the Library Functions Manual, and it’s giving “tiny but important Allegro 5 API page.” No cap. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

double al_get_timer_speed(const ALLEGRO_TIMER *timer)

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So al_get_timer_speed literally returns the timer’s speed, in seconds. That’s the whole assignment. 🎀

The value it gives you is the same value passed to al_create_timer(3) or al_set_timer_speed(3). Periodt. If you set the speed over there, this is how you peek at it over here. 👑

You hand it a const ALLEGRO_TIMER *timer, and it gives you back a double. Iconic signature behavior, honestly. ✨

Cute little sign-off: this page comes from the Allegro reference manual, and the footer is al_get_timer_speed(3) — the date isn’t listed on the page, so I’m not gonna invent one, bestie. 🫶🎀💀
