## Command Line Arguments
Your program will expect 4 command line arguments. The first is the name of the input file. The second is
the name of the output file. The third argument is an integer that specifies the width of the text column. The
fourth argument will be a string (flush_left, flush_right, or full_justify) specifying which formatting
mode should be used. Here are examples of valid command lines for your program:

webpage: [Programming Information](https://www.cs.rpi.edu/academics/courses/fall23/csci1200/programming_information.php).
## File I/O
You will read the words to format from an input text file. You should not make any assumptions about the
formatting of this file, except that the words will be separated by at least one whitespace character. Remember
that whitespace characters include spaces, tabs, and newlines. Any punctuation in the file (including periods,
commas, apostrophes, etc.) should be treated as part of the word if it is not separated from the word by
spaces. The basic iostream string input operator, >>, will work perfectly for this assignment. The output of
your program will be written to a file, and should follow the specifications in this handout and match our
examples. Reading and writing files in C++ is very similar to std::cin and std::cout. See examples of
STL file streams on the course webpage [Programming Information](https://www.cs.rpi.edu/academics/courses/fall23/csci1200/programming_information.php).
## Corner Cases
So now you understand the core requirements for this assignment, but you may already have thought of a
few problem cases. For example, how should the program full justify a line that contains just a single word?
There are no available slots between words to use to insert the extra spaces. In this case your program
should simply left justify the line. Another question you might ask is what to do if one of the words in the
file is (by itself!) wider than the width of the column? In your initial coding and testing we recommend you
assume that this will never happen. This solution will be worth nearly full credit. To receive full credit on
the assignment your program should handle this case by splitting the word and inserting a hyphen. Note
that we do not expect you to properly split the words between syllables, as that would require a database
of English words and syllables. If you think of other corner cases as you work on the assignment, propose
reasonable ways to handle those situations. If those solutions are overly complex or tricky, you do not need
to tackle the implementation, but you should write up your thoughts in your README.txt for the grader
to read.

## Reflection and Self Assessment
Discuss the issues you encountered during development and testing. What
problems did you have? What did you have to research and learn on your
own? What kinds of errors did you get? How did you fix them?
What parts of the assignment did you find challenging? Is there anything that
finally "clicked" for you in the process of working on this assignment? How well
did the development and testing process go for you?
