🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The mtree_nnode function returns the node number of the first child of node in tree.

Nodes are numbered from 0 = root.

so basically: hand it a tree and a node, and it hands you back the number of that node's very first child. main character energy, minimal drama, we love to see it. 👑

lowkey important: 0 here means "no child", and it's also the root's number, iykyk. 👀

None.

literally none. no errors, no drama, she just vibes. 🌈
