✨ imult16 ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to imult16 — she's a lil function from the Library Functions Manual and she does integer multiplication with overflow checking 💖 like yes she multiplies but she's ALSO the friend who checks on you first, iconic behavior tbh.

🌸 NAME 🌸

imult16 — integer multiplication with overflow checking 💅

🎀 SYNTAX 🎀

okay so first you gotta invite her in:

#include <libowfat/safemult.h>

int imult16(int16 a,int16 b,int16* c);

no cap, that's the whole vibe. three int16s and she's ready to go 🦋

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

so here's the tea ☕ — imult16 does c=a*b and returns 1. that's it, that's the whole main character moment, she ate 💅✨

but wait, the plot twist: in case of an integer overflow, imult16 leaves c alone and returns 0 😭🫶

bestie pay attention: she does NOT touch c when it overflows. she just says "nope" and hands you a 0. your pointer's contents stay exactly how you left them. no chaos, no drama, she's respectful like that 🙈
