DEF function is just a dumb example it is more complex than this. Not to be 
overanalized :)

My main concern here are memory leaks and to check with experts here if this 
is the way to pass it when I want to avoid creating a variable.

The function should accept vector as input but on a few occasions it needs 
just a single parameter and instead of overloading it or using a vector as 
variable I simply want a quick way to pass a parameter into it.

Performance is of no concern here. Thanks for the answer.
