I just started using C# today (generally speaking, seems pretty awesome) and when I tired to create a function with default parameters, I got an error.

How do you do this in C#?

Here an example of what I tried:


class Player

{

    public Player(string position = "MC")

    {

        //Code, etc went in here

    }

    //Rest of class

}

It gave me an error that said I couldn't define a parameter's value or something like that.

Didn't turn up anything with a search. ;).

P.S.
Nice forums.

I agree, C# is neat. The reason you can't have a default value for your function parameter in C# is because C# doesn't support this. Check out the C# FAQ here for more information on why they chose not to support it: C# Frequently Asked Questions : Why doesn't C# support default parameters?
