<div class="block">Annotation that supplies metadata about a function parameter.
<p>A typical use is to derive names for the parameters of user-defined
functions.
<p>Here is an example:
<blockquote><pre>
public static class MyLeftFunction {
public String eval(
&#64;Parameter(name = "s") String s,
&#64;Parameter(name = "n", optional = true) Integer n) {
return s.substring(0, n == null ? 1 : n);
}
}</pre></blockquote>
<p>The first parameter is named "s" and is mandatory,
and the second parameter is named "n" and is optional.
<p>If this annotation is present, it supersedes information that might be
available via
<code>Executable.getParameters()</code> (JDK 1.8 and above).
<p>If the annotation is not specified, parameters will be named "arg0",
"arg1" et cetera, and will be mandatory.</div>

<div class="block">Returns whether the parameter is optional.
<p>An optional parameter does not need to be specified when you call the
function.
<p>If you call a function using positional parameter syntax, you can omit
optional parameters on the trailing edge. For example, if you have a
function
<code>baz(int a, int b optional, int c, int d optional, int e optional)</code>
then you can call <code>baz(a, b, c, d, e)</code>
or <code>baz(a, b, c, d)</code>
or <code>baz(a, b, c)</code>
but not <code>baz(a, b)</code> because <code>c</code> is not optional.
<p>If you call a function using parameter name assignment syntax, you can
omit any parameter that has a default value. For example, you can call
<code>baz(a =&gt; 1, e =&gt; 5, c =&gt; 3)</code>, omitting optional parameters <code>b</code>
and <code>d</code>.
<p>Currently, the default value used when a parameter is not specified
is NULL, and therefore optional parameters must be nullable.</div>
