Swift Function Error

I can't get a function with two parameters to work e.g.

func someFunction(firstParameterName: Int, secondParameterName: Int) { // function body goes here // firstParameterName and secondParameterName refer to // the argument values for the first and second parameters }

someFunction(1, 2)

THE ERROR RETURNED IS

Playground execution failed: /var/folders/yw/d3ntrqd13jl_xd_tkg3nm5p00000gq/T/./lldb/1036/playground13.swift:13:13: error: missing argument label 'secondParameterName:' in call someFunction(1,2) ^ secondParameterName:

NOTE:

I have version 7 of Xcode running on a macbook pro which is less than 6 months old.

thanks for your help

Have you tried to call you function like this:

someFunction(firstParameterName: 1, secondParameterName, 2)

?
