CK_HT_ITERATOR_INIT(3)

💖 CK_HT_ITERATOR_INIT 💖

okay bestie so this one lives in the Concurrency Kit — that's libck, and you link it with -lck. it's giving ✨concurrent data structures✨ and today we're talking about the little baby that is ck_ht_iterator_init(3).

🌸 NAME 🌸

ck_ht_iterator_init — initialize hash table iterator 🎀

🦋 LIBRARY 🦋

Concurrency Kit — that's libck, and you compile with -lck. periodt.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <ck_ht.h>

ck_ht_iterator_t iterator = CK_HT_ITERATOR_INITIALIZER

void
ck_ht_iterator_init(ck_ht_iterator_t *iterator);

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so ck_ht_iterator_init() takes the object that iterator points to and initializes it. that's it. that's the whole job. she's a simple girl and she eats every time 🔥

but wait, there's a second option — you can statically initialize an iterator instead, just by handing it the value CK_HT_ITERATOR_INITIALIZER. no function call needed, no drama, just vibes 🌈

and what's an iterator even for, you ask? an iterator is what you use to walk through hash table entries with ck_ht_next(3). it's your little tour guide through the table, lowkey essential, iykyk 👑

🫶 RETURN VALUES 🫶

ck_ht_iterator_init() does not return a value. nothing. nada. she simply does the thing and dips 💨

💀 ERRORS 💀

this function will not fail. no cap. she cannot fail, she's built different, she's the main character 😭👑
