Can I directly use command-line arguments as parameters for other functions which I call in main()? Something like:
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
somefunction(argv[2], argv[3]);
}

1sure, why not? Just make sure that argc >= 4 (in your example)mac– mac2012-03-14 14:40:39 +00:00Commented Mar 14, 2012 at 14:40

The command line arguments are arguments of main. Suppose a function like this:
func1(int a, char *s[])
{
}
Here a and s are arguments to function func1. They behave like local variables in the function. Now you can pass these variables to another function. (like this: )
func1(int a, char *s[])
{
func2(a, s);
}
So, answer to your question precisely is : yes.
