Is it true that the number of arguments in a macro must be included in its name?

In Splunk, when you create a macro, it's essential for the macro's name to include the number of arguments that it can accept. This naming convention helps users and developers quickly identify how many parameters are expected when calling the macro. By following this practice, there's less chance for confusion during usage, as users can see at a glance how many arguments they need to provide based on the macro's name.

For instance, if a macro is designed to accept three arguments, a well-named macro might be something like myMacro_3. This clearly indicates to anyone reading the code or documentation that three arguments are necessary for proper execution.

Other options might touch on specific types of macros, but the fundamental principle of including the number of arguments in the name is a standard rule for both user-defined and built-in macros throughout Splunk, reinforcing good practices in macro management and readability.
