πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so here's the tea β˜• β€” this function is a two-step girlie:

  2. then it frees the list itself πŸ’… periodt

and what does it give you back?

  • 0 on success β€” iconic, flawless, no notes πŸ‘‘
  • -EINVAL if the key can't be found β€” literally "who is she? never heard of her" πŸ˜­πŸ™ˆ
ngl bestie, remember: it frees everything in that list. this is a destroy function, not a "peek at it and think about it" function. treat it with the respect it deserves πŸ’€
