lis_solver_get_preconname(3)

💖 lis_solver_get_preconname — bestie's guide to the Lis Library Functions 💖

okay so like, this is a page from the Lis Library Functions manual, section 3 (lis_solver_get_preconname(3) if you wanna be formal about it). it's a lil one, but it's a useful one, so grab a strawberry and let's go 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

lis_solver_get_preconname — get the preconditioner name from the preconditioner number 🎀

like... you hand it a number, it hands you back a name. matchmaking, but for preconditioners. iconic behaviour honestly 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include "lis.h"

LIS_INT lis_solver_get_preconname(LIS_INT precon_type, har *name);

not me pointing out that the declaration says har *name — that's exactly how it's written in the page, bestie, and I am simply not the girl who edits source material. copying it character for character, as the universe intended 🙈

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Get the preconditioner name from the preconditioner number.

that's it. that's the whole gig. you give it a preconditioner number, it gives you back the matching name. lowkey the most straightforward relationship in the whole library 🌸

---

✨ INPUT ✨

• precon_type — the preconditioner number. it's a LIS_INT, and it's the thing you're translating into a name 🧚

---

✨ OUTPUT ✨

• name — the preconditioner name. this is where the answer lands, so bestie, give it somewhere nice to live 🫶

---

✨ EXIT STATUS ✨

the following exit values are returned:

• 0 — the process is normally terminated. slay, everything went fine 👑
• unspecified — an error occurred. not slay. something went sideways and the docs are just like "unspecified" about it 💀

---

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

• lis(3)
• http://www.ssisc.org/lis/

---

💜 friendly reminder: 0 means all good, unspecified means it's giving error energy. that's the whole exit status story, no cap.

and that's the page!! ✨ this was the Lis Library Functions manual, lis_solver_get_preconname(3), dated 6 Sep 2012, and it was a Man Page in the classic sense. thanks for reading my little unix group chat, ily, go call lis(3) if you need more 💖🦋🌸
