A program that has no command line arguments will have argc _________

  • A.Zero
  • B.Negative
  • C.One
  • D.Two

Answer: C

Correct answer: One

The program name occupies argv[0] and is counted, so argc is 1 when nothing else is supplied.

That is why a program testing for arguments writes if (argc > 1) rather than if (argc). The standard permits argc to be 0, in which case argv[0] is a null pointer, but this happens only where a program is started by an exec call that supplies no name at all - never from an ordinary shell.
