✨ lis_array_reciprocal(3) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the lis_array_reciprocal page, part of the Lis Library Functions manual 💖 she's a tiny little function but she's doing the MOST, and honestly? iconic.

🌸 NAME 🌸

lis_array_reciprocal — get the reciprocal values of the elements of the vector 🫶

no cap, that's literally the whole job description. you hand her a vector, she hands you back everyone's reciprocal. reciprocal-ify. flip-ify. math slay ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include "lis.h"

LIS_INT lis_array_reciprocal(LIS_INT n, LIS_SCALAR x[]);

yes bestie, that's the whole thing. two arguments, one return value, zero drama 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Get the reciprocal values of the elements of vector x. that's it. that's the vibe. she takes the elements of x, computes their reciprocals, and (spoiler) puts the results right back into x — which you'll see again in OUTPUT below, because she's efficient like that 💀

👑 INPUT 👑

  • n — the size of the vector. how many elements we're working with, bestie. keep it accurate or it's giving chaos 😭
  • x — the array that stores the vector. this is your data, your main character array, the one carrying all the actual numbers 🍓

🌈 OUTPUT 🌈

  • x — the array that stores the reciprocal values. same array, new personality. she did NOT get a new one, she just transformed this one in place, and honestly? resourceful queen 🎀

💜 EXIT STATUS 💜

The following exit values are returned:

  • 0 — the process is normally terminated. everything worked, we ate, no crumbs left 🔥
  • unspecified — an error occurred. something went sideways and the universe did not elaborate 💀 (this is the vague-texting-back energy of exit codes, fr fr)

💅 SEE ALSO 💅

like, go check out the parent page lis(3) for the whole lore, and the website is right there if you want to go deeper 🦋

quick vibe check before you go: x gets overwritten with the reciprocals, so if you were still emotionally attached to the original values... uh. save them first bestie 🙈

kisses, this was the Lis Library Functions page for lis_array_reciprocal, dated 3 Dec 2014 — yeah she's an elder but she's still serving ✨💖 bye bestie, go compute some reciprocals, you got this 🫶
