### 16.4.1.1 Argument Association

Arguments are the values passed to and from functions and subroutines through calling program argument lists.

Execution of a procedure reference establishes argument association between an actual argument and its corresponding dummy argument. The name of a dummy argument can be different from the name of its associated actual argument (if any).

When the procedure completes execution, the argument association is terminated.

For details on argument association, see Section 8.8.
