Why are parameters important in programming?

Parameters are used to pass or assign values to an operation or routine at run time. These are often used where an executable file is used in order for the user to direct the operation of the routine, but without changing the code of the executable or recompiling it. For example parameters are used extensively in old MS DOS (compiled) executables in order to to provide different result (without changing the code of the executable). The DIR (Directory) command for example: DIR DIR *.exe / DIR *.txt DIR /P DIR /W DIR /A All use the same executable (DIR), but provide the user with different sets of output

In ms dos which command can sort files in a directory list?

dir Lists all files and directories in the directory that you are currently in. dir /ad List only the directories in the current directory. If you need to move into one of the directories listed use the CD command. dir /s Lists the files in the directory that you are in and all sub directories after that directory, if you are at root "C:\>" and type this command this will list to you every file and directory on the C: drive of the computer. dir /p If the directory has a lot of files and you cannot read all the files as they scroll by, you can use this command and it will display all files one page at a time. dir /w If you don't need the info on the date / time and other information on the files, you can use this command to list just the files and directories going horizontally, taking as little as space needed. dir /s /w /p This would list all the files and directories in the current directory and the sub directories after that, in wide format and one page at a time. dir /on List the files in alphabetical order by the names of the files. dir /o-n List the files in reverse alphabetical order by the names of the files. dir \ /s |find "i" |more A nice command to list all directories on the hard drive, one screen page at a time, and see the number of files in each directory and the amount of space each occupies. dir > myfile.txt Takes the output of dir and re-routes it to the file myfile.txt instead of outputting it to the screen.
