with --noUnusedParameters how can i skip uneeded parameters

[zpdDG4gta8XKpMCd]

sorry for being persistent, same question as in

#9403 (comment)

how is this going to work with unused parameters?

fiction third(x:any, y: any, z: T) : T { return z; } // need only last one

i was thinking of _ as a special case. but that does not seem nice. the other option is to use arguments.

[zpdDG4gta8XKpMCd]

_ works well in f#, and i like it a lot, but might be a breaking change for stuff like underscore.js

I would propose that any local starting with _ is not subject to unused checks. For multiple parameters you could then write (_0, _1, x) => x

[zpdDG4gta8XKpMCd]

consider third<T>(,, z: T): T { return z; }

[RyanCavanaugh]

Discussed quite a bit here https://esdiscuss.org/topic/uninteresting-parameters and I would defer to their judgement

[mhegazy]

I have a fix out in #9464. any parameter name starting with _ is exempt from the check.

if @RyanCavanaugh gives me a :+: i can get it in

@RyanCavanaugh the discussion you mentioned ended nowhere, but I like the point that was raised there: destructuring has been already accepting commas for unused array elements:

const values = [1,2,3];
const [,,z] = values;
