The name methods are used in the language Java, in this language we called functions are the methods but in C language we simply called these are functions, because the Java contains class and objects. Methods are called by object variable.

Method and function are the same thing but their are minor difference between them. these difference are :
function return some value but method doesn't return anything .
function have return type but method has no return type
But we can use both the same things .
Example :
some books prefer that strlen() function And some books
Code
prefer strlen() method .

Let me explain the difference between the method and function.
Method is used to for doing the things especially in a systematic way implies an orderly logical arrangement.
The function is a self-contained block of statements that perform a coherent task of some kind.

both methods and functions are set of statements to perform certain tasks...
when it places inside the class it is called as methods. methods are used to call by using objects and we can pass references as parameter.Ex. c++,java
if it is placed inside main function called as functions. function is called directly by the main program and doesn't use references. Ex c language functions

What a C/C++ programmers calls a function,we can call it as methods in Java.
We can insert functions into methods,but we cannot insert methods into functions.

I don't think so. Only the constructor do not have a return type. All other methods should have return type.
And I believe that the functions inside a class is termed as method.
I'm sorry if this is wrong
