Hello and I apologise if this is a stupid question but I am reading up on 
Callbacks in node.js and wanted to ask something about it. 
 
Example code:
 
fs.readFile('file1.txt', 'utf8', function (err, data) {
      if (err) throw err;
      console.log('File 1 read!');
  });
 
I just dont know what the parameters *err* & *data* are, is this something 
that the node.js engine resolves internally? Hope I am making sense, in 
other coding you would create these variables and then pass them to a 
method.
 
Thanks,
 
Dave Johnson.
