An argument in writing is a way to prove the main thesis or idea of an essay or longer work through supporting evidence and facts, not opinions. The argument supports the central theme and is strengthened by citing factual evidence, rather than deliberately attacking opposing views. Good arguments are based on supporting details rather than personal views alone.
