EC_NODE_ITER_GET_NODE(3)

💖 EC_NODE_ITER_GET_NODE 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the Libecoli Programmer's Manual (that's the ecoli library, she's the whole moment) and today we're talking about one tiny lil function that pulls a grammar node out of an iterator node. it's giving "one job, does it well" ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ec_node_iter_get_node — get the grammar node referenced by the iterator node 🦋

like literally that's it. the iterator node is holding onto a grammar node and this function is the girl who introduces you to her. no cap.

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <ecoli/node.h>

struct ec_node * ec_node_iter_get_node(
    struct ec_node_iter   *iter   /* The iterator node. */
);

so you're passing in one thing: iter, the iterator node. that's her. that's the main character. 💅

---

✨ RETURN VALUE ✨

the associated grammar node. that's the whole return value, and honestly? iconic of her to just hand it over, no drama, no errno shenanigans, no edge cases to keep you up at 3am. 🫶

ngl bestie this is a very short page. but not every function needs a whole saga. sometimes you just want your node back and you want it back now. periodt.
