In the BNF Playground, define a simple grammar for the header of the main function in C The simplest main function definition you could have is this:
void main

exactly two parameters. The first would be of type "int" and we will require it to have the name "argc" which stands for argument count. The second parameter must be called "argv" for argument values, but its type can be defined in several equivalent ways. It can either be a pointer to character pointers, which would look like "char or an array of character pointers arrays in C are basically pointers In this second case, the type before the parameter is just "char but the fact that the type is an array is signified by changing the parameter name to "argv
