what is the main method? example of main method. what is method declaration? and example, and what is args?, example.

PLEASE read the whole thing to get a full understanding!

Main Method

 So basically the main method is just like a default method that is usually there if you want to use it but it is not required. In the main method, there is a parameter of an array of Strings, which means when you call the main method you have to put some input into it in the form of a list or array of Strings. For example: 

public static void main(String [] args) { .... (code you want to run in the method. For the bag object) }

In this example I created the main method and for the sake of time, lets just also say I created an object named bag.

 bag.main("Banna, Chocolate...")

This code will run the main method in which it takes in an array of Strings that the main method will do something with it such as count it or print it out.

Method Declaration:

Method declaration is basically the form in which you create a method (A method is basically a piece of code that will take in something and do something with it). SO to create a method you simply do the following:

public static void Count(String [] args) {

}

To create your method just simply put your access point first (public in the example above) and other modifiers you want to include (static, void) then the name you want to call it (Count), the parameters (An array or list of Strings named args mentioned above) and finally the magic or workings inside your method within the {};

Hope this helps and happy coding! -011100110001010
