hello all,

i have a function that sometimes needs to be passed a variable, but
sometimes not.

def get_some_records(year)
    get records for year
    process them
    return result
end

the thing is, i already have it written, but i would like to have a default
like if get_some_records() is called, year would be assumed to be 2007

is there a way i can do this without having to change everywhere it is
called in my code?

thanks
sk
