Since it is possible to call functions with NamedTuples, I was wondering if there is a way to call a function that has no keywordarguments with an empty NamedTuple, and if not, why is it not desirable?
I.e.
```julia
function f()
[...]
end
f(NamedTuple())
```

Yes, you can!
```julia
test() = println("Hi") # no args no kwargs
kwargs = NamedTuple()
args = tuple()
test(args...;kwargs...)
# Hi
```
The difference with your code example is that I used `...` which unpack the arguments. `f(NamedTuple())` is reserved to mean a function with one argument that is a empty NamedTuple.

Oh, I totally forgot that! I was usually using the `...` in the function itself but did forget that they could be used also in the function call!
Thank you!
