When the names of parameters in a method call match the names of the method arguments, it contributes to clearer, more readable code. However, when the names match, but are passed in a different order than the method arguments, it indicates a mistake in the parameter order which will likely lead to unexpected results.

Noncompliant Code Example

public double Divide(int divisor, int dividend)
{
    return divisor/dividend;
}

public void DoTheThing()
{
    int divisor = 15;
    int dividend = 5;

    double result = Divide(dividend, divisor);  // Noncompliant; operation succeeds, but result is unexpected
    //...
}

Compliant Solution

public double Divide(int divisor, int dividend)
{
    return divisor/dividend;
}

public void DoTheThing()
{
    int divisor = 15;
    int dividend = 5;

    double result = Divide(divisor, dividend);
    //...
}
