Methods
In C#, functions are called methods. A method has a return type, a name and parameters: static int Square(int n) { return n * n; }
static lets Main call the method without creating an object first; you'll see why in the classes lesson. void means a method returns nothing.
By convention, C# method names start with a capital letter: Square, PrintReceipt.
Example
static string Greet(string name)
{
return $"Hello, {name}!";
}
static void Main()
{
Console.WriteLine(Greet("Ada"));
}Output
Hello, Ada!
Methods live inside the class, next to Main, not inside Main.
