You've been tasked with writing a script that processes input arguments. How would you check if the number of arguments provided to the script is less than 3?

To check if the number of arguments provided to the script is less than 3, you would use if [ "$#" -lt 3 ]. This tests whether the number of script arguments, represented by $#, is less than 3. Option 2 checks if the number of arguments is exactly 3, and Option 3 checks if it's greater than 3. Option 4 checks if there are no arguments.
