PHP: Prevent default first Function-parameter of been overwrite?

Question

How do I prevent the default first parameters from being overwritten, when second has to be change? I expect the output "SecretPassword", not NULL

<?php

  myFunc(NULL,true); //echo NULL not:"SecretPassword"
    
  function myFunc($param1='SecretPassword',$param2=false){
      echo $param1;
  }
?>

If you are using PHP 8, you CAN do that using named arguments, they were done for that exact purpose. — Lothric

you can't, as far as I understand. you would want to write the arguments in reverse order in the function's argument list, so that you can simply leave off the second argument.
