Same type, Different names for the parameters

In onCreateViewHolder, android studios has ViewGroup viewGroup and int i as params instead of what we see in the video. I was just wondering if the mechanics are the same despite the renaming?

Thanks!

So long as the parameter types and order are the same, the method should work as described. Parameter names are for humans to reference, they don't actually affect how the computer processes the code. You could change the parameter names to match the video if you wanted.
