Hello, I have a problem understanding SASS

Hello guys, I found an example SASS code that I am recreating and I have some problems understanding it.

This is the code @function hueRange($shadow, $hue) { $minHue: call($shadow, minHue); $maxHue: call($shadow, maxHue); @return $hue / 360 * ($maxHue - $minHue) + $minHue; }

I couldn´t find the meaning of call and I can't understand the reason to request 2 parameters $shadow and $hue in the function and then use them in the call.

Thanks

Hello, sure: https://codepen.io/ruberoctavio/pen/RejjVw

Could you explain me too what kind of syntax is this one? (from t he same example):

$endOptions: ( size: 4px, width: 0.75, height: 0.75,

loops: 25, twists: 12,

minHue: 0, maxHue: 180 );

Many thanks

Very cool pen - I don't know the answers to your questions.

The first statement there does an import of "compass" which is another rabbit hole to investigate - also there might be some more info in that persons comments or at least a way to post your questions to the pen's author.

Please update us with anything interesting you find out.
