## ** Functions**

- ### Limit the amount of function parameters (2 or less)
197
- Use an object if you are finding yourself needing a lot of parameters.
196
+ ### Function arguments (2 or less ideally)
197
+ Limiting the amount of function parameters is incredibly important because it
198
+ makes testing your function easier. Having more than three leads to a
199
+ combinatorial explosion where you have to test tons of different cases with
200
+ each separate argument.
201
+
202
+ Zero arguments is the ideal case. One or two arguments is ok, and three should
203
+ be avoided. Anything more than that should be consolidated. Usually, if you have
204
+ more than two arguments then your function is trying to do too much. In cases
205
+ where it's not, most of the time a higher-level object will suffice as an
206
+ argument.
207
+
208
+ Since JavaScript allows us to make objects on the fly, without a lot of class
209
+ boilerplate, you can use an object if you are finding yourself needing a
210
+ lot of arguments.
