Passing parameters to function

  this.deleteTodo = function(todo) {
    console.log("The " + todo.name + " todo is deleted!");
  };

  this.saveTodo = function(todo) {
    console.log("The " + todo.name + " todo is saved!");
  };

Can somebody explain why we set ''todo'' as parameter? Is that because we create ''todo'' object in HTML file(todo.name ; todo.completed)?

Thanks in advance

They todo variable is an object with different properties. We pass the entire object so that we are given access to all of its properies like todo.name rather then only passing a specific property.
