I have a function:

void func(string a = "hi", int b = 2, float c = 3f) {
  // return whatever
}

Say in a case I want to use the function but I only know b's value in this case, can I still use this func? How? The following code would compare my input with a which causes error:

func(4);

Is there a way to pass in value to a particular argument(the 2nd one) and still use default values for the one on the left?

I'm not sure if this works but how about if you used named parameters eg. `func( b: 4 )` – EpicKip Oct 03 '19 at 07:07
@EpicKip, `'hi'` is not a valid C# string. – Orel Eraki Oct 03 '19 at 07:09
Sorry, should be "hi". – Hua Oct 03 '19 at 07:10
