C - Command Line Arguments Examples

In C language, the command-line arguments are used to provide the values from the command line (command shell) to the program. The Command-line arguments are handled by the main() function along with two arguments that are argv and argc. The argv is an array of strings that receive the argument values and argc receives the argument counter (number of arguments).
