Bash - Default Argument for the Script

See the example of somecommand.sh:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

ARG1=${1:-foo}
ARG2=${2:-bar}
ARG3=${3:-1}
ARG4=${4:-$(date)}

echo "$ARG1"
echo "$ARG2"
echo "$ARG3"
echo "$ARG4"

Here are some examples of how this works:

$ ./somecommand.sh
foo
bar
1

$ ./somecommand.sh ez
ez
bar
1
Thu Mar 29 10:03:40 ADT 2018
