F# supports optional parameters for
Optional parameters are marked by using a question mark in front of the identifier. Their values are passed as option types, i.e. as <code>Some value</code> or <code>None</code>. The helper function <code>defaultArg</code> can be used to specify default values. In the example below, we use shadowing in order to reuse the identifiers <code>ordering</code>, <code>column</code> and <code>reverse</code>.
Typically, parameters are named at the caller site when optional parameters are involved. However, this is not technically required as long as only right-most arguments are omitted.
