== Noncompliant Code Example

With a maximum number of 4 parameters:

----
def do_something(param1, param2, param3, param4, param5):
	...
----

== Compliant Solution

----
def do_something(param1, param2, param3, param4):
	...
----

== Exceptions

The first argument of non-static methods, i.e. ``self`` or ``cls``, is not counted as it is mandatory and it is passed automatically.
