An argument is any value that is being passed to a scripting command or an executed script or function. In the script or function this value is considered a parameter.


Example:

[variable, 5, "string"] execVM "myScript.sqf"

The Array [variable, 5, "string"] and the contained values are called the arguments given to the script.

Access

In the script the argument can be accessed using the magic variable _this.
