This is an example of documentation generated by ZigDoc, an alternative to Zig's built-in Auto Doc feature. See also examples in other modes/formats. The project being documented here (as the example) is the Zig standard library. Public Function

discardAll

Public Function
std.Io.Reader.discardAll
pub fn discardAll(r: *Reader, n: usize) Error!void

Skips the next n bytes from the stream, advancing the seek position.

Unlike toss which is infallible, in this function n can be any amount.

Returns error.EndOfStream if fewer than n bytes could be discarded.
