✨ NAME ✨

al_get_path_num_components — Allegro 5 API 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

int al_get_path_num_components(const ALLEGRO_PATH *path)

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so like, this function literally just returns the number of directory components in a path. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🔥

and here's the lil plot twist you gotta remember: those directory components do NOT include the final part of a path — aka the filename. so the last chunk of your path is doing its own main character thing and does not get counted, periodt. 💀
