🌸 AUTH2ELEM(3) 🌸

okay bestie, welcome to the AUT STRUCTURE DEFINITIONS corner of the manual — section 3, the library-calls girlies' section 💅 this one's about auth2elem and she's literally the building block of the whole hash-table situation, no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

auth2elem — element in an hash table with two keys. two keys!! she's polyamorous and thriving 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like. the auth2elem structure is used to describe an hash element. that's her whole job. that's the gig.

the declarations needed to work on auth2elem are available in the header file "/labo/include/aut101.h", where '101' is the actual aut version. (yes, the number changes with the version, she's got a glow-up every release, iconic ✨)

the following C structure supports the description of an hash element:

typedef struct auth2elem
{
  char ∗KEY1;
  char ∗KEY2;
  long  VALUE;
} auth2elem;

💜 KEY1

KEY1 is the first hash element key, for example a name created with namealloc. first key energy. main character of the pair 👑

💜 KEY2

KEY2 is the second hash element key, for example a name created with namealloc. the other half of the duo, and yeah, same deal — think namealloc for this one too.

💜 VALUE

VALUE is the value associated to the two keys KEY1 and KEY2. it's giving "the payoff", the little payload that comes attached to both keys at once. obsessed 😭💖

quick vibe check: two keys, one value. don't get it twisted.

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

(the little comma after auth2table(3), in the original? yeah she trails off dramatically. we respect it.)

🎀 BUG REPORT 🎀

this tool is under development at the ASIM department of the LIP6 laboratory. it's giving "work in progress, but make it academic" 🧚

we need your feedback to improve documentation and tools. fr fr, they actually want it — so if something's confusing, say something, bestie 💌

and that's the whole page, periodt. this edition of the manual was brought to you by ASIM/LIP6 and it's dated October 1, 1997 — a vintage queen who has been slaying since before most of us could type 💅🌸✨
