DELABLEXPR(3)

πŸ“¦ version 5.1.1, in fedora 43, fedora 44

πŸ’– DELABLEXPR β€” bestie edition πŸ’–

okay so real talk, this one's from the abl family of functions (that's the ABL FUNCTIONS manual section, periodt), and it's genuinely one of the simplest little icons in the whole toolbox. no cap.


✨ ORIGIN ✨

This software belongs to the ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM, developed by the ASIM team at the LIP6 laboratory of UniversitΓ© Pierre et Marie CURIE, in Paris, France. πŸ‡«πŸ‡·βœ¨ like, they're literally in Paris, the main character city.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include "abl101.h"
  void delablexpr( Expr )
   chain_list βˆ—Expr;

πŸŽ€ PARAMETERS πŸŽ€

  • Expr β€” the expression to delete. yes bestie, that's it, that's the whole thing, she's a one-parameter girlie πŸ’…

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

delablexpr deletes the expression Expr. that's the entire plot. it's giving "short and effective". it frees the thing, and then it's gone, and we move on. πŸ’€


πŸ’œ RETURN VALUE πŸ’œ

delablexpr returns nothing. no value, no gift, no surprise. void core. 🫢


🌈 EXAMPLE 🌈

#include "abl101.h"
   chain_list βˆ—ExprA;
   chain_list βˆ—ExprB;
   chain_list βˆ—ExprAorB;
   ExprA = createablatom( "a" );
   ExprB = createablatom( "b" );
   ExprAorB  = createablbinexpr( ABL_OR, ExprA, ExprB );
   ...
   delablexpr( ExprAorB );
   ExprAorB = (chain_list βˆ—)0;
   ...

see how she built ExprAorB as an ABL_OR of two atoms and then just... deleted it? iconic. and then she sets ExprAorB = (chain_list βˆ—)0; so nothing's left dangling β€” that's the self-care step, don't skip it bestie. πŸ™ˆβœ¨

😭 BUG REPORT 😭

This tool is under development at the ASIM department of the LIP6 laboratory. They need your feedback to improve documentation and tools. so like, if something's weird, tell them! they're literally asking! fr fr πŸ’Œ


no cap, this manpage is from the ABL FUNCTIONS section of the ASIM/LIP6 manual, dated October 1, 1997, and yes we are still stanning it in the group chat. πŸ§šπŸ’– mwah, love u, go free your expressions (the C ones, not the emotional ones). ⭐🌸
