EC_PNODE_MATCHES(3)

EC_PNODE_MATCHES 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Libecoli Programmer's Manual, section 3 — this is the one about ec_pnode_matches. it's a lil function, it's a tiny function, and honestly? it's giving "do you even match, girl". let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

ec_pnode_matches — the way that it literally checks if the parsing tree matches the input 💖

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

so first you gotta include the header, obviously:

#include <ecoli/parse.h>

bool ec_pnode_matches(
    const struct ec_pnode   *pnode   /* A node in the parsing tree. */
);

one argument, one job, no drama. pnode is a node in the parsing tree, and that's the whole vibe 🦋

---

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

• true — the parsing tree matches, meaning it has a string vector. slay.
• false — otherwise. rip, no string vector, no match 🙈

that's it. that's the whole function. she's simple, she's iconic, she knows what she is 👑
