Study Notes

Methods in Programming

A method is a block of code that performs a specific task and can be reused in a program.

Declaring a Method

A method is declared by specifying the access level, return type, method name, and parameters in parentheses.

Math.pow(2, 3) in Java

'Math.pow(2, 3)' represents the method call to calculate the power of a number, where 2 is the base and 3 is the exponent, returning the result of 2 cubed (2³).

Parentheses in Method Calling

The parentheses () represent the parameter list when calling a method, which can be empty or contain one or more argument values.

Method Return Value

When a method returns a value to the calling code, the value is passed back to the caller, which can then be stored in a variable, used in an expression, or simply ignored.
