a function that takes 3 command-line arguments

I really need help on this one. Can't believe getting this kind of question as a newbie to C programming. Thanks alot
Write a program that takes 3 command-line arguments – the first is a flag, then second is a character, the third is a filename. If the flag argument is ‘s’ then it prints only those lines in the file that contain the character. If the flag argument is ‘-n’ then it prints only those lines in the file that do *not* contain the character.

 

you shud use main(int argc, char* argv[]) function insted of main() function in your program.

 

and for more control about argument handling you can use getopt (from GNU).
and else like Mahesh.Shetye said:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
if(argc!=4){
printf("Usage: %s <flag> <char> <file>",argv[0])
return 0;
}
// remaining code here
return 0;
}

 

wow... nose bleed....
