💖 c_ftgeti — retrieve an int valued parameter 💖

okay so this is a page from the NCAR GRAPHICS manual, bestie, and the star of the show is c_ftgeti (say it with me: c_ftgeti(3NCARG)) 🎀 she's a lil Fortran-callable C function and she's here to go get your ints for you. no cap.

✨ FUNCTION PROTOTYPE ✨

void c_ftgeti(char *, int *);

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void c_ftgeti (pnam, ival);

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

• pnam — the name of the control parameter whose value you wanna retrieve. like, the lil name tag of the parameter. 🏷️
• ival — *ival is gonna be the value that's currently assigned to the control parameter with that name. so you hand her a pointer and she fills it in. main character behaviour, honestly. 👑

🦋 USAGE 🦋

you call c_ftgeti when you need the current value of literally any of the int valued control parameters. that's it, that's the job. she's not nosy about the other types, she's just here for the ints. 🍓

🔥 ACCESS 🔥

to use c_ftgeti, you gotta load the NCAR Graphics library ngmath. that's the vibe check. if you don't load it, she's not showing up to the party. 🙈
