How can I create C program in C in which i can pass the user agruments?


Hello friends,
I need to know that how can i pass arguments in c program using Linux gcc and gdb?
For example, int main(int argc char *argv[])
{ any program body}
I want to know the steps how to pass the arguments while using gdb?
For consideration please explain me using factorial program.
Thank You.

Code:
gdb program
(gdb) set args arg1 arg2 ...
NOTE that you should have compiled using the -ggdb flag.

What do you mean here? You want someone to cite a factorial program, or write one for you and then use that as an example?
