hdf_get_int_value(3)

πŸ’– hdf_get_int_value πŸ’–

ok so bestie, we're diving into util/neo_hdf.h today β€” this is the hdf_get_int_value(3) page and it's honestly such a handy little function. it's giving "i just want the number, please" energy and i am obsessed. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

hdf_get_int_value β€” grab the integer value of a point in the data set πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <util/neo_hdf.h>

int hdf_get_int_value (HDF *hdf, const char *name, int defval);

πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • hdf -> a node in an HDF data set
  • name -> the name of a node to walk to in the data set
  • defval -> value to return in case of error or if the node doesn't exist

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

ok so here's the tea πŸ«– β€” hdf_get_int_value walks the HDF data set pointed to by hdf, all the way over to name, and then hands you back the value of that node, but converted to an integer. slay.

and if that node doesn't exist? or if it exists but doesn't contain a number? no drama β€” you just get defval back instead. it's the emotional support fallback value fr fr. πŸ’–


πŸ‘‘ RETURN VALUE πŸ‘‘

None
