/**
 * The syntax of Java language doesn’t allow you to declare a method with a predefined value
 * for a parameter. Probably the best option to achieve default method parameters in Java is
 * by using the method overloading. Method overloading allows you to declare several methods
 * with the same name but with a different number of parameters. But the main problem with
 * method overloading as a solution for default parameter values reveals itself when a method
 * accepts multiple parameters. Creating an overloaded method for each possible combination of
 * parameters might be cumbersome. To deal with this issue, the Parameter Object pattern is used.
 * The Parameter Object is simply a wrapper object for all parameters of a method.
 * It is nothing more than just a regular POJO. The advantage of the Parameter Object over a
 * regular method parameter list is the fact that class fields can have default values.
 * Once the wrapper class is created for the method parameter list, a corresponding builder class
 * is also created. Usually it's an inner static class. The final step is to use the builder
 * to construct a new parameter object. For those parameters that are skipped,
 * their default values are going to be used.
