Every function has these, it is so when you call it, you can pass arguments.

They're arguments, not parameters, but you've got the right idea. Parameters are a function's input variables. Arguments are values passed to a function during a function call, and which *get assigned to* parameters. Link150 1355 — 5y

So, basically when defining the function, you have parameters... hmmm piRadians 297 — 5y

Yes, parameters appear in the parentheses of a function definition, not a function call. e.g, `function add(a, b) return a+b end`. `a` and `b` in this example are parameters, whereas `2` and `3` in `local sum = add(2, 3)` are arguments. Link150 1355 — 5y

That's pretty much just how it works...
Hope this helped you.

Think of it like this: local new_obj = Instance.new("Part",workspace) -- You see you may need to put arguments in it. namespace25 594 — 5y
