Re: pls. exact diff. b/w function & method
A function should always return a value, a method may or maynot return a value,We dont have functions in java. C has functions , C++ and Java has methods defined in a class
Let me know your questions

Re: pls. exact diff. b/w function & method
Generally this naming convension is not clearly observed in programming languages. Function and method are generally interchanged. They are only part of theoritical concepts. This concept is clearly differenciated in Oracle Pl/sql.
In C they are called functions, in C++ they are called member functions and in Java the same is called as method. What ever you call, they are one and same. Ofcourse, some are inside class and some are not. We can argue that functions/methods returning void are methods ortherwise, they are simply functions. Any comments from any developer is welcome. Thanks, Krishna
