FUNCTION::RLIMIT_FRO(3stap)

✨ NAME ✨

ok so bestie, this page lives in the RLIMIT Tapset manual (section 3stap) 💖 and it's all about one lil function: function::rlimit_from_str — she gives you the symbolic string that goes with a resource limit code 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

rlimit_from_str:long(lim_str:string)

that's it, that's the whole vibe check 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• lim_str — the string representation of limit you're handing over, bestie. fr fr, that's the one and only thing she takes 🙈

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so here's the tea 🍓 — this function takes the string you gave her and hands you back the number that's associated with it.

like, she'll give you 0 for the string RLIMIT_CPU ✨ (iconic, honestly). and if the value is out-of-range? she gives you -1. periodt 💀 no cap, that's just how she moves.

so: in-range string → the number it maps to. out-of-range → -1. that's the whole deal 🫶
