<h3 class="section">3.5 Examples</h3>
<p>Here is an example of some code which checks the return value of a
function where an error might be reported,
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">#include <stdio.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_errno.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_fft_complex.h>
...
int status;
size_t n = 37;
gsl_set_error_handler_off();
status = gsl_fft_complex_radix2_forward (data, stride, n);
if (status) {
if (status == GSL_EINVAL) {
fprintf (stderr, "invalid argument, n=%d\n", n);
} else {
fprintf (stderr, "failed, gsl_errno=%d\n",
status);
}
exit (-1);
}
...
</pre></div>
<p>The function <code>gsl_fft_complex_radix2</code> only accepts integer lengths
which are a power of two. If the variable <code>n</code> is not a power of
two then the call to the library function will return <code>GSL_EINVAL</code>,
indicating that the length argument is invalid. The function call to
<code>gsl_set_error_handler_off</code> stops the default error handler from
aborting the program. The <code>else</code> clause catches any other possible
errors.
</p>
