579 PointsSwitching the order of the mixin "square" results in error saying the mixin needs $size and $color
What am I missing, if only the order of the arguments have been reversed? (code below) @mixin square ($color:black, $size) { height: $size; width: $size; border: 1px solid $color; } .box { @include square (red, 10px); }

Treehouse Moderator 37,862 PointsI believe it does matter what order they are in, this is the code I use:
@mixin square($size, $color) {
border: 1px solid $color;
height: $size;
width: $size;
}

579 PointsThanks, Caleb, It's looking like the exercise will allow you to switch the order of the arguments if one is specific (following examples above...) .box { @include square($color:red, $size:10px); }
