xargs command in UNIX or Linux is a powerful command used in conjunction with find and grep command in UNIX to divide a big list of arguments into small list received from standard input. find and grep command produces a long list of file names and we often want to either remove them or do some operation on them but many UNIX operating system doesn't accept such a long list of argument. UNIX xargs command divide that list into sub-list with acceptable length and made it work.
