Parameter or Argument?

Re:Parameter or Argument? by flipp3r on Thursday July 14, 2016 @09:59AM (#12093800)

"A Parameter is a variable in the signature of a function declaration or definition:"

int main (int argc, char argv)

public static void main(String[] args)

static void Main(string[] args)

sys.argv

Wait a minute...

Those parameters hold information about the arguments that were passed in. They don't hold information about what parameters were declared. To programmatically get information about the parameters you would use reflection or something like that.
