Explanation of Solution

Methods:

  • The methods could be used to break a complex program into small pieces.
  • The “void” method simply executes a statements group and then terminates.
  • A value returning method would return a value to statement that has called it.
  • While calling a method, program would branch to that method.
  •  It would then execute statements in its body.
  • The values that are sent into a method are termed as “arguments”.
  • A “parameter” denotes a special variable that holds a value that is being passed into a method.
  • The “passed by value” means that only copy of a value of argument is been passed into parameter variable.
  • A “local variable” is been declared inside a method, it is not accessible to statements outside method...

MindTap: In C#, Write a program named Averages that includes a method named Average that accepts any number of numeric parameters, displays them, and displays their average. Test your function in your Main(). Tests will be run against Average() to determine that it works correctly when passed one, two, or three numbers, or an array of numbers.
JAVA Problem description:You are to write a program called Seasons that prompts the user for a month and day and displays the season in which that date occurs. For reference, we will use the following date cutoffs for the various seasons: Winter December 21 – March 19 Spring March 20th – June 20th Summer June 21st – September 20th Fall September 21st – December 20th Data Validation For this program, you'll write a specific method to perform data validation based on the month and day entered. More specifically: Month – the month entered must be a valid month of the year (January – December). Day – the day entered must be a valid day for that month: January, March, May, July, August, October, December have 1-31 days. April, June, September, November have 1-30 days. February has 1-28 days (do not worry about leap years) Required program decomposition String getMonth(Scanner console) This method is called from the main method and should prompt for the month as a string…
