Can I work on this? Go ahead @richardmr36  hey @iluwatar @richardmr36  can you please give more info about the issue @raghuvanshi65 The link mentioned in the issue gives enough details I guess. It is easier to understand if you are aware about default parameters feature of JavaScript ES6. Let us know if you have any specific questions. @iluwatar could you help me with the tool or IntelliJ plugin used to generate class diagram? @richardmr36 there's brief explanation in https://github.com/iluwatar/java-design-patterns/wiki/01.-How-to-contribute @iluwatar ucls file is not getting generated. Is there any other additional steps required for that? @richardmr36 ucls file is not mandatory, and it's not autogenerated. Those are source files of [ObjectAid's UML plugin](https://www.objectaid.com/home). If you want to generate the UML diagram by hand for some reason, then that could be something to try.

This pattern shows us the way to have default parameters for a method in Java as the language doesn't have default parameters feature out of the box. 
``` ```suggestion

- [Does Java have default parameters?](http://dolszewski.com/java/java-default-parameters)

``` To make the example more real, perhaps we could call some method with the `params` or at least log its contents after the construction. Next line to this is calling a search method using the parameter object. Output of that method basically shows the object content. Anyway logging the constructed object now. Let me know if this is fine.  Yes, that's fine
Parameter Object idiom
It's a simple workaround for Java not having default parameters:

+## Intent
+
+The syntax of Java language doesn’t allow you to declare a method with a predefined value
+for a parameter. Probably the best option to achieve default method parameters in Java is
+by using the method overloading. Method overloading allows you to declare several methods
+with the same name but with a different number of parameters. But the main problem with
+method overloading as a solution for default parameter values reveals itself when a method
+accepts multiple parameters. Creating an overloaded method for each possible combination of
+parameters might be cumbersome. To deal with this issue, the Parameter Object pattern is used.
+
+## Explanation
+
+The Parameter Object is simply a wrapper object for all parameters of a method.
+It is nothing more than just a regular POJO. The advantage of the Parameter Object over a
+regular method parameter list is the fact that class fields can have default values.
+Once the wrapper class is created for the method parameter list, a corresponding builder class
+is also created. Usually it's an inner static class. The final step is to use the builder
+to construct a new parameter object. For those parameters that are skipped,
+their default values are going to be used.
+
+
+**Programmatic Example**
+
+Here's the simple `SearchService` class where Method Overloading is used to default values here. To use method overloading, either the number of arguments or argument type has to be different.
+
+```java
+public class SearchService {
+  //Method Overloading example. SortOrder is defaulted in this method
+  public String search(String type, String sortBy) {
+    return getQuerySummary(type, sortBy, SortOrder.DESC);
+  }
+
+  /* Method Overloading example. SortBy is defaulted in this method. Note that the type has to be 
+  different here to overload the method */
+  public String search(String type, SortOrder sortOrder) {
+    return getQuerySummary(type, "price", sortOrder);
+  }
+
+  private String getQuerySummary(String type, String sortBy, SortOrder sortOrder) {
+    return "Requesting shoes of type \"" + type + "\" sorted by \"" + sortBy + "\" in \""
+        + sortOrder.getValue() + "ending\" order...";
+  }
+}
+
+```
+
+Next we present the `SearchService` with `ParameterObject` created with Builder pattern.
+
+```java
+public class SearchService {
+
+  /* Parameter Object example. Default values are abstracted into the Parameter Object 
+  at the time of Object creation */
+  public String search(ParameterObject parameterObject) {
+    return getQuerySummary(parameterObject.getType(), parameterObject.getSortBy(),
+        parameterObject.getSortOrder());
+  }
+  
+  private String getQuerySummary(String type, String sortBy, SortOrder sortOrder) {
+    return "Requesting shoes of type \"" + type + "\" sorted by \"" + sortBy + "\" in \""
+        + sortOrder.getValue() + "ending\" order...";
+  }
+}
+
+public class ParameterObject {
+  public static final String DEFAULT_SORT_BY = "price";
+  public static final SortOrder DEFAULT_SORT_ORDER = SortOrder.ASC;
+
+  private String type;
+  private String sortBy = DEFAULT_SORT_BY;
+  private SortOrder sortOrder = DEFAULT_SORT_ORDER;
+
+  private ParameterObject(Builder builder) {
+    type = builder.type;
+    sortBy = builder.sortBy != null && !builder.sortBy.isBlank() ? builder.sortBy : sortBy;
+    sortOrder = builder.sortOrder != null ? builder.sortOrder : sortOrder;
+  }
+
+  public static Builder newBuilder() {
+    return new Builder();
+  }
+
+  //Getters and Setters...
+
+  public static final class Builder {
+
+    private String type;
+    private String sortBy;
+    private SortOrder sortOrder;
+
+    private Builder() {
+    }
+
+    public Builder withType(String type) {
+      this.type = type;
+      return this;
+    }
+
+    public Builder sortBy(String sortBy) {
+      this.sortBy = sortBy;
+      return this;
+    }
+
+    public Builder sortOrder(SortOrder sortOrder) {
+      this.sortOrder = sortOrder;
+      return this;
+    }
+
+    public ParameterObject build() {
+      return new ParameterObject(this);
+    }
+  }
+}
+
+
+```
