How do I pass arguments to a batch script?

You can pass arguments to a batch script by using the syntax %1, %2, etc., where each number corresponds to the argument's position.

Can you give me an example of a batch script that uses arguments?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

@echo off
set arg1=%1
set arg2=%2
echo First argument: %arg1%
echo Second argument: %arg2%

What if I want to pass more than 9 arguments?

For more than 9 arguments, you can use the syntax %%~n where n is the argument number, or use a different method like shifting.

How do I handle optional arguments in a batch script?

You can check if an argument is provided by using an IF statement, like this:

IF NOT "%1"=="" ( 
echo Argument 1 is provided.
) ELSE (
echo Argument 1 is missing.
)
