🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so what does it do? it returns 0, or a negative value in case of error 😭 that's the whole description, ngl it's a short one, but we respect the brevity fr fr ✨

lowkey important: a negative return means something went wrong, so do a vibe check on that return value before you go assuming everything slayed 💀
