Wait, can all macros really accept any number of arguments?

I feel like I saw something about naming conventions in macros, but I can't recall if it was about starting or ending with a number.

I’m a bit confused; I thought all macros could take any number of arguments. Is that what option D is saying?

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think it was about how macros can handle multiple arguments. Could it be option C?

I think the macro just needs to have the right argument count set, but I'm not entirely sure if it has to be exactly three.

Ah, this is a good one. I remember learning about macro arguments in class. I'm confident the answer is C - the macro needs to be set up to accept 3 or more arguments.

Okay, let me see... I'm pretty sure the answer isn't A or B, since the macro name doesn't determine the number of arguments. I think C is the right choice, but I'll double-check the details just to be sure.

A seems like a weird requirement. The macro's name ending in (3) doesn't seem like a logical way to specify the argument count.

Haha, B is a bit of a silly choice. As if the macro's name has anything to do with the number of arguments it can take!

D sounds tempting, but I'm pretty sure that's not correct. All macros can't just accept any number of arguments.
