STSETI(3NCARG)

πŸ“¦ version 6.6.2, in epel 9, fedora 43, fedora 44

πŸ’– STSETI πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the NCAR Graphics corner of the universe β€” this is a page from the 3NCARG manual and honestly? it's giving "tiny function, big responsibility". ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

STSETI β€” sets the value of an internal parameter of type INTEGER. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

CALL STSETI (CNM,IVL)

yes bestie, two args, no drama. 🫢

πŸ¦‹ C-BINDING SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

for my C girls and theys:

#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

void c_stseti(char *cnm, int ivl)

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

  • CNM β€” (CHARACTER, input) the name of a parameter that's gonna get an integer value. here's the tea though: only the first three characters of CNM are even examined. and those three characters have to be entirely upper case or entirely lower case β€” mixed case? not recognized, not invited, not on the list. πŸ™ˆ you're recommended (highkey encouraged) to use the rest of the character string to make your code readable for future you. like, instead of 'CKP', use 'CKP - Check Progress Iteration Count'. main character move, honestly.
  • IVL β€” (INTEGER, input) an expression, and whatever that expression evaluates to is the value that gets handed to the parameter named by CNM. simple. iconic. no cap.

πŸ’œ C-BINDING DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

the C-binding argument descriptions are literally the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions. same energy, different language, periodt. ✨


🌈 USAGE 🌈

this routine lets you set the current value of Streamlines parameters that are of type INTEGER. for the complete list of parameters available in this utility, go check the streamlines_params man page β€” she has the full roster. πŸ“‹


πŸ“ EXAMPLES πŸ“

use the ncargex command to see these relevant examples, bestie:

  • ffex00
  • ffex03
  • ffex04
  • stex01
  • stex02
  • stex03

run them, love them, learn from them. πŸ”₯


⭐ ACCESS ⭐

to use STSETI or c_stseti, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c β€” preferably in that order. order matters, don't be chaotic about it. 🧚


πŸ’€ MESSAGES πŸ’€

see the streamlines man page for a description of all Streamlines error messages and/or informational messages. that's where the lore lives.

lowkey important: this whole vibe comes from the UNIX version of the page, dated April 1993. so yeah β€” STSETI(3NCARG), NCAR Graphics, April 1993. slay, and good luck out there bestie. πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹βœ¨
