Access command line arguments in Julia

Question

When I type in

$ julia myprog.jl foo bar baz

Where in my code can I go to access the strings \"foo\", \"bar\", \"baz\" ?

Answer 1

A simpler example:

#printargs.jl

println(ARGS[2]);

Run it as

julia printargs.jl a b c d

b

Note that the array index starts from 1 and NOT 0. Thus ARGS[2] prints b and not c as in case of many other programming languages.
