pods::SDL::Rect(3pm)

💖 SDL::Rect — the manual page, but make it make sense 💖

okay so bestie, you found your way to pods::SDL::Rect from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and honestly? you're gonna slay this one. it's a little rectangle module. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

SDL::Rect — literally just defines a rectangular area. that's it. that's the whole thing. and honestly? iconic for that 💅

🎀 CATEGORY 🎀

Core, Video, Structure — so it's core, it's video-adjacent, and it's a structure. noted. moving on ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the whole flex, in code, exactly as it is:

 my $rect = SDL::Rect->new(0, 0, 50, 4);
 $rect->x(1);
 $rect->y(2);
 $rect->w(3);
 my $x = $rect->x; # 1
 my $y = $rect->y; # 2
 my $w = $rect->w; # 3
 my $h = $rect->h; # 4

see how it works? you make one, you poke the values, you read them back. lowkey satisfying ngl 😌

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so an SDL_Rect defines a rectangular area of pixels. pixels, bestie. that's the whole assignment. a little pixel rectangle doing its little pixel rectangle thing ✨

👑 METHODS 👑

💜 new

 my $rect = SDL::Rect->new( $x, $y, $w, $h );

the constructor, aka the glow-up moment where your rectangle is born 💫 it creates a brand new rectangle with the x, y, width and height values you hand it. that's it, that's the birth certificate.

💜 x

 my $x = $rect->x;
 $rect->x(128);

dual-purpose queen 👑 if you pass it a value, this method sets the x component of the rectangle. if you don't? it just returns the x component. same deal, no notes.

💜 y

 my $y = $rect->y;
 $rect->y(128);

exact same energy as x but vertical, bestie. pass a value → it sets the y component. don't pass one → it returns the y component. truly the y to your x fr fr 💕

💜 w

 my $w = $rect->w;
 $rect->w(128);

okay so w is width, obviously 🙈 pass a value and it sets the w component of the rectangle; keep your hands to yourself and it returns the w component. easy.

💜 h

 my $h = $rect->h;
 $rect->h(128);

and h is height, closing out the set 🎀 pass a value → it sets the h component; pass nothing → it returns the h component. periodt.
