Just wondering, how do you take input directly from the node call? I know you can do it in Python. Here is an example of what I want to achive:
Code:
function main(x,y) {
return x * y;
}
Command Call:
node index.js 2 2
Or something.

you can use process.argv
let inputArr=process.argv.slice(2);
console.log(inputArr) // [2,2]
we are skipping the first two element of the array process.argv because the first two elements will be always - node and the path to your script

Both are good, but I marked this answer because it added an easy example.
You can use process.argv this will return an array containing the arguments you passed in CLI
