Execute main args.length number of times

[cherrychives]

I want the number of times main's code is executed to be dependent on the number of comman-line arguments passed to the program. The least troublesome way I can think of is to wrap all of the code in a big for loop..

But is there a better way to do it?

Thanks in advance

If main() works on one command line argument at a time you could move its code to a different method. Then main() would just call this other method within a loop.

Thank you pbrock.

In my particular program, the minimum length of args is 3, and the first two arguments are used every time the code is executed, so it would it still be more efficient to invoke a separate method and pass 3 parameters each time?

I wasn't thinking of efficiency so much as clarity. One task: one (documented) method.

The other two argumenst could also be assigned to static variables if that makes sense.
