Difference between Arguments vs Parameters? Explained

 Difference between Arguments vs Parameters?

In this post, You are going to see the difference between Arguments & Parameters in programming languages. it is quite important to understand and it sometimes brings you out in the confusing situation between this. So I will make you clear about it.

Parameter:

 A Parameter is a variable in a method definition. 

Arguments:

When a method is called, the arguments are the data you pass into the method's parameter. 

Let's take a simple example to understand more clearly,

public void MyMethod(String myParameter) { } String myArgument = "GeeksGetPlaced"; MyMethod(myArgument);

In the above example, 

MyMethod is a method name and myParameter is a parameter with String datatype which is passed for the function to use. 

myArgument is an argument that has the String value/data "GeeksGetPlaced" to the myMethod function.

I think you understand the basic differences between Arguments & Parameters.
