💖 c_dsgetrd — the NCAR Graphics era 💖

okay bestie, welcome to c_dsgetrd from the NCAR GRAPHICS collection 💅 it's a manual page from the 3NCARG section and honestly? she's giving quiet luxury, because all she does is peek at a number and hand it to you. no drama. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

c_dsgetrd — retrieves the value of an internal parameter of type double. 🎀

like. that's it. that's the whole job. she's a getter. she gets. 💖

🧚 FUNCTION PROTOTYPE 🧚

void c_dsgetrd(char *, double *);

literally the exact signature, don't come for me, copy it as-is 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

c_dsgetrd (char *pnam, double *dval)

two args, one mission. slay. ✨

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

  • pnam — a string that specifies the name of the parameter you wanna get. important bestie: the name has to appear as the first three characters of the string. that's the vibe check. only the first three count. 👑
  • dval — *dval is the value currently assigned to the control parameter whose name is pointed to by pnam. so like, you point at a name, and the actual current value gets dropped into *dval. iconic behaviour fr fr. 💖

🦋 USAGE 🦋

this routine lets you retrieve the current value of Dsgrid parameters. 🎀 if you want the complete list of parameters available in this utility, go read the dsgrid_params man page — she has the full roster, iykyk. 📋✨

🔥 ACCESS 🔥

to use c_dsgetrd, you load the NCAR Graphics library ngmath. that's the plug. 🔌💅
