What are the main differences between a function, a method, a procedure and a subroutine?
Can you explain to me the main differences between a function, a method, a procedure and a subroutine?
Sure, I'd be happy to help you with that. A function is a type of subroutine that returns a value. A method is similar to a function, but it is associated with a particular object or class. A procedure is also a type of subroutine, but it does not return a value. Finally, a subroutine is a generic term for any block of code that can be called from within another block of code.
