πŸ’– al_fixhypot πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the Allegro 5 API manual page for al_fixhypot β€” she's a lil function but she ATE πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

al_fixhypot β€” literally the Allegro 5 API, that's her whole job πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

al_fixed al_fixhypot(al_fixed x, al_fixed y)

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so like… she's a fixed point hypotenuse 🧚 meaning she hands you back the square root of x*x + y*y β€” no cap, that's the whole vibe πŸ’«

and here's the part where you should be obsessed: you could just do that math yourself manually, but don't πŸ™ˆ because with al_fixhypot the error is much smaller ✨ so she's genuinely better than you doing the formula by hand. she's giving precision, she's giving main character energy πŸ‘‘


πŸ’€ fr fr bestie, just use the function. your manual formula could NEVER.

so that's the whole page, and this lil diva comes to you straight out of the Allegro reference manual, manual name al_fixhypot(3alleg5) β€” mwah, slay, periodt πŸ’–βœ¨πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹πŸŒΈ
