    Command line

    Hello

    How would I be able to read in a word off the command line and store it as a variable? Thanks

    ex(prog name is test)
    test word
    -> I would like to store word into a variable



    Thanks

    int main(int argc, char* argv[]);

    argc is the number of arguements. The first argument is the name of the program (in argv[0]), the second argument is whatever the second space delimited sequence was (and it's in argv[1]), the third is in argv[3], etc.
