method is function which belongs to class. Function is a part of code which you can call when you need it. For example: lets say that you have class called "MagicNumber" which contain random int value and three methods. You can check if number is lower, or higher, or equal 0 if (MagicNumber.value > 0 ){ MagicNumber.behaveWhenHigher() } else if (MagicNumber.value < 0 ){ MagicNumber.behaveWhenLower() } else { MagicNumber.behaveWhenZero() } I hope it can help you ;) cheers
