cssgrid_errors(3NCARG)

💖 cssgrid_errors — NCAR GRAPHICS 💖

okay bestie, so this one is cssgrid_errors(3NCARG), and it's literally just the ✨error decoder ring✨ for Cssgrid. Every single error that Cssgrid can throw at you, with its number and what it actually means. no cap, keep this open in a tab forever.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

below is every entry: the error number, and the tea on what it means. one at a time, periodt.

• 1 — the number of input points is invalid. it has to be greater than 3. that's the whole vibe check.
• 2 — the dimension for latitudes in the output grid is invalid. 🙈
• 3 — the dimension for longitudes in the output grid is invalid. same energy, different axis.
• 4 — the first three nodes of the input array are collinear. they're all in a line, bestie, and that's not it.
• 5 — extrapolation failed because the uniform grid extends too far beyond the triangulation boundary. it's giving "wandered off the map".
• 6 — internal algorithm error. 😭 this is a please report this situation, fr fr. not you, it's the algorithm.
• 7 — a vertex of a triangle containing an interpolation point is outside its valid range. 🚩
• 8 — the angular distance between an interpolated point and the nearest point of the triangulation is at least 90 degrees. that point is lowkey stranded.
• 9 — there aren't enough input points to calculate a gradient. need more data, babe.
• 10 — insufficient space for the triangulation. it must be >= number of boundary nodes minus 2. do the math, slay.
• 11 — degenerate triangle: two vertices lie on the same geodesic. 💀 iconic but not in a good way.
• -L — coordinates L and M coincide for some M > L >= 1, and the coordinate numbering starts at 1. so like, two of your coordinates are sitting in the exact same spot. 🫶

ngl, if you're seeing 6, that one's on the algorithm — report it. the rest are all "check your inputs" energy.

and that's the whole page, bestie!! this one dropped on UNIX back in May 2000 as part of NCAR GRAPHICS, and it's still cssgrid_errors(3NCARG) to this very day. go forth and debug, you've got this 💅✨
