I want to call function First() with its positional parameters $1 $2 and so on but don't want those parameters to be positional parameters from script file.

Don't know how to substitute $1, $2 when I call this function, cause I want to only call this First() with parameters $3 and $4.

I got it Smilie
Solution in line 57.
I just have called the function and paste in positional parameters $1 and $2 no values at all.


Code:
    57  First "" "" "29" "male"
