Methods

A method is a block of code which only runs when it is called.You can pass data, known as parameters, into a method.Methods are used to perform certain actions, and they are also known as functions.Methods are used to reuse code: define the code once, and use it many times.

Create a Method

A method must be declared within a class. It is defined with the name of the method, followed by parentheses (). Java provides some pre-defined methods, such as System.out.println(), but you can also create your own methods to perform certain actions:

Example:

Create a method inside MyClass:

public class MyClass {

static void myMethod() {

 // code to be executed

}

}
