## Adding Arguments
### Positionals
You can have users specify values by their position on the command-line:
[Example:](03_03_positional.rs)
```console
$ 03_03_positional --help
clap [..]
A simple to use, efficient, and full-featured Command Line Argument Parser
USAGE:
03_03_positional[EXE] [NAME]
ARGS:
<NAME>
OPTIONS:
-h, --help Print help information
-V, --version Print version information
$ 03_03_positional
NAME: None
$ 03_03_positional bob
NAME: Some("bob")
```
### Options
You can name your arguments with a flag:
- Order doesn't matter
- They can be optional
- Intent is clearer
[Example:](03_02_option.rs)
```console
$ 03_02_option --help
clap [..]
A simple to use, efficient, and full-featured Command Line Argument Parser
USAGE:
03_02_option[EXE] [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS:
-h, --help Print help information
-n, --name <NAME>
-V, --version Print version information
$ 03_02_option
name: None
$ 03_02_option --name bob
name: Some("bob")
$ 03_02_option --name=bob
name: Some("bob")
$ 03_02_option -n bob
name: Some("bob")
$ 03_02_option -n=bob
name: Some("bob")
$ 03_02_option -nbob
name: Some("bob")
```
### Flags
Flags are switches that can be on/off:
Flags can also be switches that can be on/off:
[Example:](03_01_flag_bool.rs)
```console

### Options
Flags can also accept a value.
[Example:](03_02_option.rs)
```console
$ 03_02_option --help
