constructor/this pointer help
Hello. Curious as to why I am getting the same output of:
First name: (blank)
Last name: (blank)
Zip code: (blank)
when using the default value of "X" and when using the info supplied?

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
class Person
{
private:
string firstName;
string lastName;
string zipCode;
public:
Person(string = "X", string = "X", string = "X"); //constructor to set values to X if no arguments are supplied

};

{
this->firstName = firstName;
this->lastName = lastName;
this->zipCode = zipCode;
}
void Person::displayInfo()
{
cout << "********** "<< endl;
cout << "First name: " << endl;
cout << "Last name: "<< endl;
cout << "Zip code: "<< endl;
}
int main()
{
Person noDetails; //Person object w/ default values "X"
noDetails.displayInfo();
Person details("Billy", "Enforcee", "77177"); //Person object with given values
details.displayInfo();
system("pause");
return 0;
}

In Person::displayInfo():
cout << "First name: " << firstName << endl;
