In the preceding examples in this section, we defined the parameters' names and value types in the same way we would define parameters in C code. In Swift, we are not limited to this syntax as we can also use external parameter names.
External parameter names are used to indicate the purpose of each parameter when we call a function. An external parameter name for each parameter needs to be defined in conjunction with its local parameter name. The external parameter name is added before the local parameter name in the function definition. The external and local parameter names are separated by a space.
Let's look at how to use external parameter names. But before we do, let's review how we have previously defined functions. In the following two examples, we will define a function without external parameter names, and then redefine...
