The java command-line argument is an argument i.e. passed at the time of running the java program.

The arguments passed from the console can be received in the java program and it can be used as an input.

So, it provides a convenient way to check the behavior of the program for the different values. You can pass N (1,2,3 and so on) numbers of arguments from the command prompt.

In this example, we are receiving only one argument and printing it. To run this java program, you must pass at least one argument from the command prompt.

 class CommandLineExample{ public static void main(String args[]){ System.out.println(“Your first argument is: “+args[0]); } } 

 compile by > javac CommandLineExample.java run by > java CommandLineExample tutor 

Output: Your first argument is: tutor

Example of command-line argument that prints all the values

In this example, we are printing all the arguments passed from the command-line. For this purpose, we have traversed the array using for loop.

 class A{ public static void main(String args[]){  for(int i=0;i<args.length;i++) System.out.println(args[i]);  } } 

Output: tutor        aspire        1        3        abc
