how to call a function in java

To call a function in Java, you first need to define the function, and then you can call it by using its name followed by a pair of parentheses.

Here's an example of how to define and call a function in Java:

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Define the function
        void greet() {
            System.out.println("Hello, World!");
        }

        // Call the function
        greet();
    }
}

This code defines a function called greet that prints a greeting to the console, and then calls the function. When the code is run, it will print "Hello, World!" to the console.

You can also pass arguments to a function by including them in the parentheses when you call the function. For example:

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Define the function
        void greet(String name) {
            System.out.println("Hello, " + name + "!");
        }

        // Call the function
        greet("Alice");  // Output: Hello, Alice!
        greet("Bob");  // Output: Hello, Bob!
    }
}

This code defines a function that takes a single argument (a String called name) and prints a greeting using the value of the name argument.
