WMGETR(3NCARG)

✨ WMGETR ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the NCAR GRAPHICS manual pages, section 3NCARG πŸ’– this little icon right here is WMGETR, and she's giving "let me go get that real number for you" energy. no cap.


🌸 NAME 🌸

WMGETR β€” retrieves the real value of an internal parameter of type REAL. yeah. that's the whole job. and she ate. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

CALL WMGETR (PNAM,RVAL)

πŸ¦‹ C-BINDING SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

void c_wmgetr (char *pnam, float *rval)

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

  • PNAM β€” (an input expression of type CHARACTER) this is the name of the parameter you wanna get, bestie. heads up tho: the name must appear as the first three characters of the string. like, only the first three. that's the vibe check. πŸ™ˆ
  • RVAL β€” (an output variable of type REAL) this is the name of the variable where the value of the internal parameter specified by PNAM gets retrieved into. so you hand her an empty cup and she fills it. iconic. 🫢

🌈 C-BINDING DESCRIPTION 🌈

the C-binding argument descriptions are the exact same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions. literally the same. fr fr. πŸ’€


⭐ USAGE ⭐

this routine lets you retrieve the current value of Wmap parameters. lowkey so useful.

for a complete list of parameters available in this utility, go look at the wmap_params man page. she has the whole menu. πŸ‘‘


πŸ’… ACCESS πŸ’…

to use WMGETR or c_wmgetr, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c β€” and preferably load them in that exact order, bestie. don't be chaotic about it. πŸŽ€
