== Why is this an issue?

Consistent naming between arguments and parameters reduces the chances of making mistakes, such as passing the wrong value to a parameter or omitting an argument in a function call. When the names of arguments in a function call match the names of the function parameters, it contributes to clearer, more readable code. 

However, when the names match but are passed in a different order than their declaration in the function signature, it may indicate a mistake in the parameter order, likely leading to unexpected results.

[source,javascript,diff-id=1,diff-type=noncompliant]
----
function divide(dividend, divisor) {
  return dividend / divisor;
}

function doTheThing() {
  const dividend = 15;
  const divisor = 5;

  const result = divide(divisor, dividend); // Noncompliant: not the expected result
  //...
}
----

Ensure that the arguments passed to the function are in the correct order, according to the function signature.

[source,javascript,diff-id=1,diff-type=compliant]
----
function divide(dividend, divisor) {
  return dividend / divisor;
}

function doTheThing() {
  const dividend = 15;
  const divisor = 5;

  const result = divide(dividend, divisor);
  //...
}
----

=== Exceptions

Swapped arguments that are compared beforehand in an enclosing ``++if++`` statement are ignored:

[source,javascript,diff-id=1,diff-type=compliant]
----
function divide(dividend, divisor) {
  return dividend / divisor;
}

function doTheThing() {
  const dividend = 5;
  const divisor = 15;
  if (divisor > dividend) {
    const result = divide(divisor, dividend);
    //...
  }
}
