✨ NAME ✨

WMLABC β€” bestie, this one plots weather map city names and their daily hi/lows πŸ’–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

CALL WMLABC (X, Y, CITY, TEMPS)

πŸŽ€ C-BINDING SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void c_wmlabc(float x, float y, char *city, char *temps)

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so here's the whole squad of arguments, no cap:

  • X (Real, Input) β€” an X coordinate, and yes it's in world coordinates. It's the point that sets the center of the whole composite label β€” that's the city name from the character variable CITY plus the temperature ranges from the character variable TEMPS all smooshed into one lil unit. The city name goes above the temperatures. iconic layout honestly πŸ’…
  • Y (Real, Input) β€” a Y coordinate, also in world coordinates. Same deal as X: it marks the center of that same composite label made of the city name in CITY and the temperature ranges in TEMPS. And yeah, city name on top, temps underneath. 🫢
  • CITY (Character, Input) β€” a character variable holding the name of the city you're plotting. literally just the city's name, bestie.
  • TEMPS (Character, Input) β€” a character variable holding the daily hi/low label for whichever city got named in that third argument. 🌑️

🌈 USAGE 🌈

Set the values for the appropriate internal parameters before you call WMLABC, or you're not gonna get the label you actually wanted. 😭 The internal parameters running the whole look of these labels are:

  • CBC
  • CHT
  • CMG
  • RFC

and if you wanna mark where the cities are with a lil dot, go read the docs for WMLABS. ⭐


πŸ‘‘ ACCESS πŸ‘‘

To use WMLABC or c_wmlabc, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c β€” preferably in that exact order, bestie. Don't fight the order. πŸ™ˆ
