AGGETF(3NCARG)

✨ AGGETF ✨

okay bestie, welcome to AGGETF from the NCAR GRAPHICS collection (that's the 3NCARG manual section, iykyk) 💖 this one is literally so simple and so useful: it lets your program grab the real value of one single parameter. one. that's the whole vibe. she's a getter, she's a girl, she's doing her job 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

AGGETF — allows a user program to retrieve the real value of a single parameter. no cap, that's it, that's the job description 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

CALL AGGETF (TPGN,FUSR)

🌈 C-BINDING SYNOPSIS 🌈

#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

void c_aggetf (char *tpgn, float *fusr)

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so let's meet the two arguments, they're the main characters here:

• TPGN — this is an input expression of type CHARACTER 🎀 it's a parameter identifier, exactly the way it's described over in the AGGETP man page. and here's the tea: if you specify a group of more than one parameter, this call will only retrieve the first element of that group. just the first one. she's not greedy, but she's also not thorough 😭
• FUSR — this is an output variable of type REAL ✨ she receives the real value of the parameter that TPGN specified. that's her whole purpose. icon behavior.

🧚 C-BINDING DESCRIPTION 🧚

the C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions. same facts, different outfit 🫶

⭐ USAGE ⭐

this routine lets you retrieve the current value of Autograph parameters 💜 and if you want the complete list of parameters available in this utility, go read the autograph_params man page. she has the full menu, bestie 🍓

👑 ACCESS 👑

to use AGGETF or c_aggetf, you need to load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c — preferably in that order, okay? order matters, don't play with her 🙈

and if you want smoother curves drawn using spline interpolation, also load libdashsmth.o 🌈

OR, alternatively, you can use the ncargf77 command to compile your program and load the above libraries, and then, to get smoother curves, use the -dashsmth option ✨ two roads, same destination, slay 💅
