π botan(3em) π
okay so bestie, welcome to the botan page β it's the Botan bindings for Emilua, living in section 3em of the manual. It's short, it's sweet, and it's gonna take you like twelve seconds to read. slay. π
β¨ NAME β¨
botan β the Botan bindings for Emilua, periodt π«Ά
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
okay here's the whole vibe, copy it exactly bestie:
local botan = require 'botan'
botan.base64_encode_max_output(input: byte_span|integer) -> integer
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
so like, this one is not complicated. base64_encode_max_output() returns the size, in bytes, of the output of base64_encode(). that's it. that's the whole function. it's giving "helpful little size oracle" and honestly we love a low-key icon πβ¨
you hand it an input that's a byte_span or an integer, and it hands you back an integer. no cap, that's the entire dealio. π¦
ngl bestie, this page is tiny, but tiny pages still have RULES β every flag, every type, every byte count stays exactly where it is. no cutting corners on the facts, only on the word count. π
mwah π that's the whole page! this little beauty came from Emilua 0.12.1 and it's dated 1980-01-01 β yes, that date is real, and yes, it's iconic. go be great with your byte spans, ily, bye! πππ
