✨ SIGNGAM(3P) — POSIX Programmer's Manual ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because we're doing a whole page about one single little variable from the POSIX Programmer's Manual 💖 it's short, it's sweet, and it's giving "reference sheet energy."

🌸 PROLOG 🌸

so like, real talk first: this manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. and the Linux implementation of this interface may differ — like, go check the corresponding Linux manual page for the deets on how Linux actually behaves 🫶 — or honestly? the interface might not even be implemented on Linux at all. no cap. 😭

👑 NAME 👑

signgam — log gamma function. that's it. that's the whole name section. iconic.

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

#include <math.h>

extern int signgam;

look at her. one include, one extern int. minimalist queen 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the entire description is basically: refer to lgamma(). go read that page, bestie, that's where the actual lore lives. this one is just the side character holding the sign 💀
