EC_NODE_SUBSET(3)

💅 EC_NODE_SUBSET 💅

ok bestie, welcome to the Libecoli Programmer's Manual — yes we're doing manpage era and honestly? it's giving cozy. this one's about ec_node_subset, and it is short, so hydrate and let's go ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ec_node_subset — bestie, it literally just creates an empty subset node. that's the whole job. no cap. 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <ecoli/node_subset.h>

struct ec_node * ec_node_subset(
    const char   *id   /* The node identifier. */
);

so you're gonna #include <ecoli/node_subset.h> 🦋, and then you call ec_node_subset() and hand it exactly one thing: id, which is the node identifier. that's it. one (1) argument. slay.

---

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

you make the node with ec_node_subset(), and then — and this is the part everybody forgets — you use ec_node_subset_add() to actually add children to it. because right now? it's empty. it's a vibe, not a family. 👑

---

😭 RETURN VALUE 😭

you get back the node. or, if the universe said no, you get NULL on error, and errno is set. so like, check your return value, bestie, please, i'm begging 🙈
