  1. Step 1: Understand default parameters

    In Ruby, parameters with default values are optional when calling the method.

    The parameter uses its default value inside the method. -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Calling method without argument uses default value [OK]
Quick Trick: Default parameters fill in missing arguments automatically [OK]
