What is Methods<br />
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Let us now start with an introduction to '''methods.'''<br />
<br />
<br />
A '''Method''' is a self-contained program executing a specific task. <br />
<br />
<br />
'''Ruby method''' is very similar to functions in any other programming language.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
|-<br />
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:none;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 6 <br />
<br />
Method<br />
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| '''Method''' name should begin with a lowercase letter.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Methods''' should be defined before calling them.<br />
<br />
|-<br />
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:none;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 7<br />
<br />
Syntax for Method<br />
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Let us see the syntax of '''Method'''<br />
<br />
<br />
'''def method_name(arguments)'''<br />
<br />
'''ruby code'''<br />
<br />
'''end'''<br />
<br />
'''OR'''<br />
<br />
<br />
'''def method_name ()'''<br />
<br />
'''ruby code'''<br />
<br />
'''end'''<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Methods '''are defined using the keyword '''def''' followed by the '''method''' name.<br />
<br />
<br />
The '''arguments''' specify values that are passed to the '''method''', to be processed. <br />
<br />
<br />
The '''ruby code''' section represents the body of the <br />
<br />
'''method''' that performs the processing.'' ''<br />
<br />
<br />
The '''method''' body is enclosed by this definition on the top and the word '''end''' on the bottom<br />
<br />
This is called as method with arguments.<br />
<br />
|-<br />
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:none;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 7<br />
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Another syntax for method is<br />
<br />
<br />
The keyword '''def '''followed by the '''method name''' and an empty argument list<br />
<br />
<br />
The '''ruby code''' section represents the body of the <br />
<br />
'''method''' .'' ''<br />
<br />
<br />
The word end marks end of method<br />
<br />
<br />
This is called as method without arguments.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
I have already typed a program in the '''gedit''' editor. <br />
<br />
Let me open it.<br />
<br />
|-<br />
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:1pt solid #000000;border-left:1pt solid #000000;border-right:none;padding:0.097cm;"| Point to the filename on the Title bar.<br />

<br />
<br />
I have saved the file inside our '''rubyprogram''' folder.<br />
<br />

<br />
