Chapter 5, Problem 7AW
Program Plan Intro
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 for statements outside method.
- A process in which a problem is been divided into smaller pieces is termed as “functional decomposition”.
Example:
Consider the example of method definition which is given below:
Public static void method()
{
Statement;
}
Here, “statement” denotes the body of method, that is to be executed when “method()” is been called.
