EC_NODE_UINT(3)

✨ EC_NODE_UINT ✨

okay bestie, welcome to ec_node_uint from the Libecoli Programmer's Manual — it's the little function that makes you a whole brand-new unsigned integer node 🎀 no cap.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ec_node_uint — create an unsigned integer node. that's it, that's the whole vibe. a node. for unsigned ints. iconic 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <ecoli/node_int.h>

struct ec_node * ec_node_uint(
    const char   *id,    /* The node identifier. */
    uint64_t      min,   /* The minimum valid value (included). */
    uint64_t      max,   /* The maximum valid value (included). */
    /*
     * The base to use for parsing. If 0, try to guess from prefix.
     */
    unsigned int  base
);

so like, four lil arguments, one big slay. here's the tea on each one 🍓:

• id — the node identifier, literally just the name tag for your node. *const char **.
• min — the minimum valid value, and yes it's included (inclusive, bestie, we're generous). uint64_t.
• max — the maximum valid value, also included. uint64_t.
• base — the base to use for parsing, unsigned int. and the little comment says: if it's 0, try to guess from the prefix. so 0 = "figure it out yourself, king" 👑

💖 RETURN VALUE 💖

you get the node back 🫶 … or NULL on error, and in that case errno is set. so like, check your return value, fr fr. don't be out here dereferencing NULL and acting surprised 😭
