They are blocks of code that can be called repeatedly. They can have parameters and return something. Read it in more detail in the course

Martin Taylor quite nitpicky but correct 🙄😉 SE8 introduced java.util.function however, but i don't think he meant that

Method and a function are the same, with different terms. A method is a procedure or function in object-oriented programming. A function is a group of reusable code which can be called anywhere in your program. This eliminates the need for writing the same code again and again.
