You can easily call a JavaScript function with more arguments than the function needs, but the extra arguments will be just ignored by function
execution.
Noncompliant Code Example
function say(a, b) {
print(a + " " + b);
}
say("hello", "world", "!"); // Noncompliant; last argument is not used
Exceptions
No issue is reported when arguments
is used in the body of the function being called.
function doSomething(a, b) {
compute(arguments);
}
doSomething(1, 2, 3) // Compliant
