What are parameters in Avaloq ICE programming?

Parameters in Avaloq ICE programming are essential components that enable methods or procedures to accept dynamic input during execution. This functionality allows developers to create more flexible and reusable code since the same method can operate on different sets of data based on the values passed as parameters. By using parameters, programmers can enhance the interactivity and adaptability of their applications, facilitating varied responses to user inputs or changing conditions during runtime.

Other options do not accurately capture the role of parameters. Constants defined at the beginning of a program are fixed values that do not change throughout the execution, thus lack the dynamic nature that parameters provide. Functions that process data in the system refer to operations that perform actions or manipulate data but do not describe how input is provided to these functions. Similarly, defining user roles and access rights pertains to security and permission management rather than the mechanism by which methods accept input.
