EC_PNODE_NEXT(3)

✨ EC_PNODE_NEXT(3) ✨

okay bestie, so this one lives in the Libecoli Programmer's Manual and it's literally the smallest lil guy in the whole parsing tree family. but do not sleep on it!! 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ec_pnode_next — get the next sibling node, periodt. 👑

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <ecoli/parse.h>

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

so pnode is just a node in the parsing tree, that's the whole vibe. nothing else to feed it. 💖

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

bestie listen, here's the tea ☕:

• if pnode is the root of the parsing tree, it returns NULL. yeah. root has no siblings, it's giving only-child energy, it's the main character, nobody else is on that level. 😭
• otherwise? it returns the next sibling node. slay. 🎉

that's it. that's the function. short and iconic. no cap.

---

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

The next sibling, or NULL if there is no sibling. 🫶

(so if you get NULL back, it's not a bug, it's just the end of the line — the tree said "we're done here" 💅)
