To make our functions even more flexible, we can make certain parameters optional. If someone calls your method without all the parameters, the method will assign a default value to those missing parameters.

All you have to do is use the equals sign (=) when defining the method. In this example, punctuation is an optional parameter, and its default value is ".".

static void Main(string[] args) { YourMethodName("I'm hungry", "!"); // prints "I'm hungry!" YourMethodName("I'm hungry"); // prints "I'm hungry." } static void YourMethodName(string message, string punctuation = ".") { Console.WriteLine(message + punctuation); }

Instructions

1.

Make the existing parameter in VisitPlanets() optional.

The default value should be 0.

2.

Call the method without the optional parameter in Main().
