ugetat(3)

🌸 ugetat(3) — Allegro manual, bestie 🌸

okay so you're looking at ugetat(3) from the Allegro manual. She's a tiny function with main character energy, and she's here to help you peek at characters inside a string. Let's get into it. 💖

✨ NAME ✨

ugetat — finds out the value of a character in a string. Part of the Allegro game programming library. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <allegro.h>

int ugetat(const char *s, int index);

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so ugetat finds out the character value at the specified index in the string. A zero index parameter will return the first character of the string. If index is negative, it counts backward from the end of the string, so an index of -1 will return the last character of the string. It's giving "string reverse access, but make it cute." 🦋

Example:

int third_letter = ugetat(text_string, 2);

🎀 RETURN VALUE 🎀

Returns the character value at the specified index in the string. That's the whole vibe. No cap. ✨
