ustrchr(3alleg4)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, so ustrchr is literally the girl who finds the first occurrence of a character in a string 🎀 and she's part of the Allegro game programming library ✨ slay

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro.h>

char *ustrchr(const char *s, int c);

like, that's the whole vibe check right there 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what she does is: she finds the first occurrence of the character c in the string s. that's it, that's the job, and she ate 🔥

here's the moment, fr fr:

char *p = ustrchr("one,two,three,four", ',');

like she's gonna hunt down that very first comma and point at it. iconic behavior honestly 🌈

🦋 RETURN VALUE 🦋

she hands you back a pointer to the first occurrence of c in s 🫶 and if there's genuinely no match anywhere? you get NULL. no match, no pointer, we move on 💀

ngl there's a lil plot twist here: if c is NULL, she returns a pointer to the end of the string. not the start, not somewhere in the middle — the end. the way that's lowkey cursed but also so valid 😭
