Parameter is the variable name of a function definition whereas an argument represents the value given to a function when it is invoked. Let’s explain this with a simple function
function myFunction(parameter1, parameter2, parameter3) {
console.log(arguments[0]); // “argument1”
console.log(arguments[1]); // “argument2”
console.log(arguments[2]); // “argument3”
}
myFunction(“argument1”, “argument2”, “argument3”);
