命令行参数是使用名称传递给程序的参数.例如，UNIX程序cp(复制两个文件)具有以下命令行参数:

Command line arguments are arguments passed to your program with its name. For example, the UNIX program cp (copies two files) has the following command line arguments:

cp SOURCE DEST

您可以使用argc和argv访问命令行参数:

You can access the command line arguments with argc and argv:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    return 0;
}

argc是参数的数量，包括程序名，而argv是包含参数的字符串数组. argv[0]是程序名称，并且保证argv[argc]是NULL指针.

argc is the number of arguments, including the program name, and argv is the array of strings containing the arguments. argv[0] is the program name, and argv[argc] is guaranteed to be a NULL pointer.

因此cp程序可以这样实现:

So the cp program can be implemented as such:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    char *src = argv[1];
    char *dest = argv[2];

    cpy(dest, src);
}

不必将它们命名为argc和argv；它们可以有您想要的任何名称，尽管传统上它们被称为该名称.

They do not have to be named argc and argv; they can have any name you want, though traditionally they are called that.
