Hello @matz, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!
Summary of Changes
Hello! Gemini here, providing a summary of this pull request. This PR, authored by matz, aims to significantly improve the documentation of the mruby C API, specifically for array-related functions located in src/array.c. The core change involves adding detailed C-style multiline comments (/** ... */) to numerous functions. These comments describe the purpose of each function, detail its parameters using @param tags, and specify the return value using @return tags, enhancing the readability and maintainability of the C API for developers working with mruby arrays. As noted in the description, the @brief tag was intentionally omitted.
Highlights
- API Documentation: Adds comprehensive C-style documentation comments to public
MRB_APIfunctions related to arrays insrc/array.c. - Improved Readability: Each comment explains the function's purpose, parameters, and return value, making the C API easier to understand and use.
