Some folks might think: “you still use RCS”?!? And we will say, hey, at least we switched from SCCS to RCS back in … I think it was around 1994 ... at least we are keeping up! :-) :-) :-) Logs say that SCCS version 18 became RCS version 19 on 1994 March 18. RCS served us well. But now it is time to move on. And so we are switching to git. Calc releases produce a lot of file changes. In the 125 releases of calc since 1996, when I started managing calc releases, there have been 15473 file mods!

NAME
|
|
argv - count or value of a calc command line supplied argument
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
argv([n])
|
|
|
|
TYPES
|
|
n nonnegative integer
|
|
|
|
return any
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
Without args, this builtin returns the number of calc command line
|
|
strings available.
|
|
|
|
If the numeric arg is supplied, then the corresponding command line
|
|
string is return, if it exists. Otherwise a nul() value is returned.
|
|
|
|
In keeping with the argc/argv convention of C, argv(0) will refer
|
|
to the 1st argv string, and argv(argv()-1) will refer to the last.
|
|
This differs from the way the param() builtin works.
|
|
|
|
By default, calc will evaluate all of its command line arguments.
|
|
However, if calc is invoked with -s, all non-dashed options will
|
|
be left as unevaluated strings. Thus:
|
|
|
|
calc -i 2+2
|
|
|
|
will cause calc to print 4 and enter interactive mode. In this case
|
|
argv() will return 0.
|
|
|
|
On the other hand:
|
|
|
|
calc -i -s 2+2
|
|
|
|
will cause calc to interactive mode. The argv() builtin will return 1
|
|
and argv(0) will return the string "2+2".
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
|
$ calc -s a bb ccc
|
|
; argc = argv();
|
|
; for (i = 0; i < argc; i++) print "argv[": i : '] = "': argv(i) : '"';
|
|
argv[0] = "a"
|
|
argv[1] = "bb"
|
|
argv[2] = "ccc"
|
|
|
|

|
