    No this isn't the answer, but if you look up those functions in your manual, then it should lead you to the functions you want
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
