1. Project Overview

Advanced Argument Analyzer is a Java console application that intelligently parses, classifies, and validates command‑line arguments. It identifies flags, options, and positional inputs; recognizes emails, URLs, numbers, and file extensions; and produces a clear, formatted report—ideal for developing robust CLI utilities and demonstrating advanced OOP skills.

2. Summary

• Intelligent Parsing: Detects long flags (-verbose), short flags (v), and options (-output=path).
• Pattern Recognition: Validates emails, URLs, integers, decimals, and file types.
• Statistical Reporting: Calculates argument counts, average lengths, and distribution.
• User Guidance: Built‑in -help and -version support with examples.
• Robust Validation: Gracefully handles malformed or missing arguments with clear error messages.

3. My Role & Contributions

• Designed & Implemented the core parsing engine using Java’s String, Map, and Pattern APIs.
• Developed Validation Modules for emails, URLs, numbers, and filenames with regular expressions.
• Crafted Console UX featuring hierarchical headings, separators, and emoji-enhanced feedback.
• Authored Comprehensive Documentation (README, code comments, demo scripts) to onboard new users quickly.
• Maintained Version Control on GitHub, managed semantic versioning (v2.0), and ensured build status via CI badges.

4. Challenges & Learning Outcomes

Challenges:

• Balancing thorough validation with minimal performance overhead.
