Method in C#: Learn How to Use Methods in C#

Understand what methods are in C#, how to define and call them, and best practices for organizing your code using reusable methods.

What is a Method?

A method is a block of code designed to perform a specific task, which can be called (invoked) whenever that task needs to be executed, helping you avoid repeating the same logic throughout your program.

Defining a Method

A method definition includes an access modifier, a return type, a name, and a parameter list enclosed in parentheses, followed by a body containing the actual instructions to execute.

Calling a Method

Once defined, a method can be called by referencing its name followed by parentheses containing any required arguments, causing the program to jump to that method's code and execute it.

Method Return Types

Methods can either return a value, indicated by specifying a return type such as int or string, or perform an action without returning anything, in which case the return type is declared as void.
