* Group arguments.
* By default, ArgumentParser groups command-line arguments
* into “positional arguments” and “optional arguments”
* when displaying help messages. When there is a better
* conceptual grouping of arguments than this default one,
* appropriate groups can be created using the addArgumentGroup() method
*
* This class inherited from [[ArgumentContainer]]
