# Argument Usage in Komada

## Usage Structure
`<>` required argument, `[]` optional argument
`<Name:Type{min,max}>`

- **Name** Mostly used for debugging message, unless the type is Litteral in which it compares the argument to the name.
- **Type** The type of variable you are expecting
- **Min, Max** Minimum or Maximum for a giving variable (works on strings in terms of length, and on all types of numbers in terms of value) You are allowed to define any combination of min and max. Omit for none, `{min}` for min, `{,max}` for max.
- **Special Repeat Tag** `[...]` will repeat the last usage optionally until you run out of arguments. Useful for doing something like `<SearchTerm:str> [...]` which will allow you to take as many search terms as you want, per your Usage Deliminator.
