Lesson 3.4: Parameterized Contracts

Welcome to Lesson 3.4! In this lesson, you'll learn how to define parameterized smart contracts with Plutus.

Learning Objectives

After completing this lesson, you'll be able to:

• Define parameters to provide information to a smart contract.

• Explain the differences between using the datum or parameters to define values in smart contracts.

Additional Resources

To learn more about the topics covered in this lesson, we encourage you to review the following resources:

• Why do we need parameterized contracts? Can't we just use datum?

Collaborate with the Pioneers Community

Remember that you can interact with the participants of the PPP through the IOG's technical community on Discord by joining the channels under the Plutus Pioneers category.

If during the program you have questions about Plutus, we invite you to share them at Cardano Stack Exchange (CSE) by adding the plutus-pioneer-program tag to your question. The IOG's Education Team members will monitor these questions to support your learning journey. Whenever you share a question at CSE, you're helping to build up the Cardano and Plutus development knowledge base.
