EC_STR_PARSE_LLINT(3)

✨ NAME ✨

ec_str_parse_llint — parse a string for a signed integer, bestie 💖

okay so welcome to the EC_STR_PARSE_LLINT(3) page from the Libecoli Programmer's Manual 🫶 this function is literally here to take a string and turn it into a signed integer. no cap.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <ecoli/string.h>

int ec_str_parse_llint(
    const char   *str,   /* The string to parse. */
    unsigned int  base,  /* The base (0 means "guess"). */
    int64_t       min,   /* The minimum allowed value. */
    int64_t       max,   /* The maximum allowed value. */
    int64_t      *val    /* The pointer to the value to be set on success. */
);

like, you hand it a str to parse, a base where 0 means “guess” 👀, a min and a max for the allowed range, and a pointer val that gets set on success. it's giving “trust me, I'll fill in the value” energy 💅

💜 RETURN VALUE 💜

On success, return 0 ✨. Otherwise, return -1 and set errno 😭. periodt.
