+<h3 class="section">3.3 Macro Arguments</h3>
+<a name="index-arguments"></a>
+<a name="index-macros-with-arguments"></a>
+<a name="index-arguments-in-macro-definitions"></a>
+
+<p>Function-like macros can take <em>arguments</em>, just like true functions.
+To define a macro that uses arguments, you insert <em>parameters</em>
+between the pair of parentheses in the macro definition that make the
+macro function-like. The parameters must be valid C identifiers,
+separated by commas and optionally whitespace.
+</p>
+<p>To invoke a macro that takes arguments, you write the name of the macro
+followed by a list of <em>actual arguments</em> in parentheses, separated
+by commas. The invocation of the macro need not be restricted to a
+single logical line&mdash;it can cross as many lines in the source file as
+you wish. The number of arguments you give must match the number of
+parameters in the macro definition. When the macro is expanded, each
+use of a parameter in its body is replaced by the tokens of the
+corresponding argument. (You need not use all of the parameters in the
+macro body.)
+</p>
+<p>As an example, here is a macro that computes the minimum of two numeric
+values, as it is defined in many C programs, and some uses.
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">#define min(X, Y) ((X) &lt; (Y) ? (X) : (Y))
+ x = min(a, b); &rarr; x = ((a) &lt; (b) ? (a) : (b));
+ y = min(1, 2); &rarr; y = ((1) &lt; (2) ? (1) : (2));
+ z = min(a + 28, *p); &rarr; z = ((a + 28) &lt; (*p) ? (a + 28) : (*p));
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>(In this small example you can already see several of the dangers of
+macro arguments. See <a href="Macro-Pitfalls.html#Macro-Pitfalls">Macro Pitfalls</a>, for detailed explanations.)
+</p>
+<p>Leading and trailing whitespace in each argument is dropped, and all
+whitespace between the tokens of an argument is reduced to a single
+space. Parentheses within each argument must balance; a comma within
+such parentheses does not end the argument. However, there is no
+requirement for square brackets or braces to balance, and they do not
+prevent a comma from separating arguments. Thus,
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">macro (array[x = y, x + 1])
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>passes two arguments to <code>macro</code>: <code>array[x = y</code> and <code>x +
+1]</code>. If you want to supply <code>array[x = y, x + 1]</code> as an argument,
+you can write it as <code>array[(x = y, x + 1)]</code>, which is equivalent C
+code.
+</p>
+<p>All arguments to a macro are completely macro-expanded before they are
+substituted into the macro body. After substitution, the complete text
+is scanned again for macros to expand, including the arguments. This rule
+may seem strange, but it is carefully designed so you need not worry
+about whether any function call is actually a macro invocation. You can
+run into trouble if you try to be too clever, though. See <a href="Argument-Prescan.html#Argument-Prescan">Argument Prescan</a>, for detailed discussion.
+</p>
+<p>For example, <code>min (min (a, b), c)</code> is first expanded to
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample"> min (((a) &lt; (b) ? (a) : (b)), (c))
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>and then to
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">((((a) &lt; (b) ? (a) : (b))) &lt; (c)
+ ? (((a) &lt; (b) ? (a) : (b)))
+ : (c))
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>(Line breaks shown here for clarity would not actually be generated.)
+</p>
+<a name="index-empty-macro-arguments"></a>
+<p>You can leave macro arguments empty; this is not an error to the
+preprocessor (but many macros will then expand to invalid code).
+You cannot leave out arguments entirely; if a macro takes two arguments,
+there must be exactly one comma at the top level of its argument list.
+Here are some silly examples using <code>min</code>:
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">min(, b) &rarr; (( ) &lt; (b) ? ( ) : (b))
+min(a, ) &rarr; ((a ) &lt; ( ) ? (a ) : ( ))
+min(,) &rarr; (( ) &lt; ( ) ? ( ) : ( ))
+min((,),) &rarr; (((,)) &lt; ( ) ? ((,)) : ( ))
+
+min() error&rarr; macro &quot;min&quot; requires 2 arguments, but only 1 given
+min(,,) error&rarr; macro &quot;min&quot; passed 3 arguments, but takes just 2
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>Whitespace is not a preprocessing token, so if a macro <code>foo</code> takes
+one argument, <code>foo&nbsp;()<!-- /@w --></code> and <code>foo&nbsp;(&nbsp;)<!-- /@w --></code> both supply it an
+empty argument. Previous GNU preprocessor implementations and
+documentation were incorrect on this point, insisting that a
+function-like macro that takes a single argument be passed a space if an
+empty argument was required.
+</p>
+<p>Macro parameters appearing inside string literals are not replaced by
+their corresponding actual arguments.
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">#define foo(x) x, &quot;x&quot;
+foo(bar) &rarr; bar, &quot;x&quot;
+</pre></div>
