command line argument in c
 

hii to all

i have a problem related to command line argument in c

#include <stdio.h>

main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
if( argc == 2 )
printf("The argument supplied is %s\n", argv[1]);
else if( argc > 2 )
printf("Too many arguments supplied.\n");
else
printf("One argument expected.\n");
}



i have this code but i dont know how to execute this code in gcc plz be descriptive thanks

You don't execute it in gcc, you compile it.

man gcc
holds a host of information to explain how. Have a read, highly
recommendable ;}

first: gcc -o yourtext yourtext.c
second: ./yourtest parameter1 parameter2...
last: you will get the answer you want

i executed this code as
gcc code.c

next for the output i type code 3 it says command not found

when i try ./a.out 34

it is working my problem is why code 3 is not working

man gcc
/-o
