Practice and Revision - User-Defined Methods
Let us practise and revise what we learned about user-defined methods. User-defined methods are custom blocks of code we create to perform s
Core concept
A method has a name, optional parameters (inputs), and a return type (the type of value it gives back, or void if nothing is returned).
How it works
Methods help break down complex programs into smaller, manageable pieces, each responsible for a specific task.
Why it matters
Calling a method executes its code, and if it returns a value, that value can be used in the calling code.
Key detail
Understanding user-defined methods helps us write organised, reusable, and easier-to-maintain Java programs.
