Until now, all of the code you have written has been placed in the main method. As programs get larger and more complex, code written entirely in the main method becomes unmaintainable and difficult to understand. Chapter 3: Calling Methods briefly described how to call a method to make your work easier. This chapter will explain how to create your own methods to perform tasks in a well organized and structured manner.
