In object-oriented programming, objects combine their data with the code that acts on that data. Which statement best describes the role of a method within this paradigm?
They are used to store pieces of data for an object in object-oriented programming.
They define a set of instructions that perform a specific task when called upon in a program.
They are commands used to manipulate the user interface of an application.
They provide the main structure and definition for objects in object-oriented programming.
A method is a block of code packaged with a class or object that defines an action or behavior. When the method is invoked, the program executes the instructions it contains, allowing the object to perform a specific task. Organizing code into methods promotes reuse, readability, and logical structure. A class serves as the blueprint that lists an object's attributes (data) and methods (behaviors), while properties or attributes simply store the object's data.
