Say I have a function that has (A, B, C, D, E) arguments.
Foo(A, B, C, D, E)
But I don’t need them all the time. Sometimes I just need A and C for example. Right now I would have to call it like this:
Foo('beef', '', 'sour cream', '', '')
But those blanks irritate me. Is there a way to say to make it just be Foo('beef', 'sour cream')?
Maybe Foo(A='beef', C='sour cream')?
I’ve tried making them optional, but as I understand it, I can’t expect the program to understand I want B blank. It expects 5 arguments, it needs 5.
