How does this code work even the call to draw does not have arguments?

Code from MDN https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/JavaScript/Asynchronous/Timeouts_and_intervals let startTime = null; function draw(timestamp) { if(!startTime) { startTime = timestamp; } currentTime = timestamp - startTime; requestAnimationFrame(draw); } draw();
