Help with UDF

[232showtime]

Hello,

I got little problem with this UDF found in wiki, Just copy paste from wiki and got an error, got really confused this time.

#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

testme()
Func testme($param1, $param2 = "nothing", $param3 = 5)
    MsgBox($MB_OK, "", "Parameter one is required. The value of Parameter 1 is " & $param1 & @CRLF & _
            "Parameter 2 is optional. The value of Parameter 2 is " & $param2 & @CRLF & _
            "Parameter 3 is optional. The value of Parameter 3 is " & $param3)
EndFunc   ;==>testme

;"C:\Users\user\Desktop\Script\UserDefinedFunction.au3"(4,55) : error: testme() called by a previous line with 0 arg(s). Min = 1. ;First previous line calling this Func is 3.
;Func testme($param1, $param2 = "nothing", $param3 = 5)

Isn't the first parameter required?

#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

testme("required")
Func testme($param1, $param2 = "nothing", $param3 = 5)
    MsgBox($MB_OK, "", "Parameter one is required. The value of Parameter 1 is " & $param1 & @CRLF & _
            "Parameter 2 is optional. The value of Parameter 2 is " & $param2 & @CRLF & _
            "Parameter 3 is optional. The value of Parameter 3 is " & $param3)
EndFunc   ;==>testme

What do you mean you tried $param1 = 1?

I declared $param1 = 1 and got an error, I copy paste again the code and declared $param1 = 1 and it worked, thats why I got confused.

Func testme($param1=1, $param2="Nothing", $param3=3)

MsgBox($MB_OK, "", "Parameter one is required. The value of Parameter 1 is " & $param1 & @CRLF & _
            "Parameter 2 is optional. The value of Parameter 2 is " & $param2 & @CRLF & _
            "Parameter 3 is optional. The value of Parameter 3 is " & $param3 )

EndFunc

That would mean $param1 is no longer required, it's optional, if you look at Dcoders post# 2 above, the $param1 variable is required, which means you must give $param1 a value e.g. testme("Here is Param1").  Hope that made sense.
