💖 pskc_strerror(3) 💖

okay so this is the libpskc manual page for pskc_strerror(3), bestie — and it's giving “error code translator, but make it readable” energy. ✨ no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

pskc_strerror — API function. that's the name, that's the vibe, periodt. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <pskc.h>

const char * pskc_strerror(int err);

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

  • int err — error code, a pskc_rc value. 🫶 this is the code you want explained.

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so picture this: you've got a return code and you need a human-readable string explanation of the reason for that particular error code. that's literally the whole job. ✨

you can use this string to output a diagnostic message to the user. very demure, very helpful. 🎀

and here's the iconic bit: this function is one of few in the library that can be used without a successful call to pskc_init(). no successful init required, bestie — it's built different. 💅

🎀 RETURN VALUE 🎀

Returns a pointer to a statically allocated string containing an explanation of the error code err. that's the return value — a pointer, statically allocated, explanation included. 💖
