c_ftsetfa(3NCARG)

✨ c_ftsetfa ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to c_ftsetfa from the NCAR GRAPHICS manual (that's section 3NCARG btw, iykyk). this is the little guy that sets your float-valued array parameters. let's get into it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

c_ftsetfa — set float valued array parameters

🧚 FUNCTION PROTOTYPE 🧚

int c_ftsetfa(char *pnam, int n, float *far);

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int c_ftsetfa (pnam, n, far);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

here's the tea on the arguments, one by one, no skips:

• pnam — the name of the control parameter that's getting assigned a float array value. literally just the name, bestie.
• n — how many float values are chilling in the array.
• far — a pointer to that n-element input array. the whole squad of floats.

💖 USAGE 💖

so c_ftsetra is what you use to set values for any of the control parameters that take floating arrays. (yes, that's literally the name written on the page — i'm just the messenger 🙈)

and the way that the values you set with c_ftsetfa stay in effect until they get changed by subsequent calls to c_ftsetfa? iconic. they just persist. main character energy, honestly. periodt.

🔥 ACCESS 🔥

to use c_ftsetfa, you gotta load the NCAR Graphics library ngmath. that's the vibe check — no library, no function. 🫶
