Task
Apply Remove Parameter to improve readability, testability, maintainability, reusability, modularity, cohesion, low coupling, and consistency.
Always return a complete and compilable method (Java 17).
Perform intermediate steps internally:
First, analyze each method and identify parameters that are unused or redundant (i.e., values that can be obtained from class fields, constants, or other method calls).
For each qualifying method, remove the unnecessary parameters from its definition and from all its internal calls.
Ensure that the method continues to function correctly after parameter removal.
Output only the refactored code inside a single block.
Do not remove any functionality from the original method.
Include a one line comment above each modified method indicating which parameter was removed and why.
Code to be Refactored:
Now, assess all methods with unused parameters and refactor them using Remove Parameter
