Exam 6: Modularizing Your Code with Methods

Suppose you're using the debugger to step through a method, and you want to immediately return to the place in the program where the method was called. The Step Return command will accomplish this.

You can write methods that return any data type.

It is a standard convention among C# programmers to use ____________ for method names because it differentiates method names from variable and field names.

Methods usually belong to a class, so you must write a method's definition inside the class to which it is supposed to belong.

A method definition has two parts: a header and a body.

When you pass an argument to a method, the argument's data type must be ____________ with the receiving parameter's data type.

A value-returning statement must have a(n) ____________ statement.

A mathematical expression such as A * B cannot be passed as an argument to a method containing a value parameter.

In a general sense, a class is a collection of statements that performs a specific task.

The memory address that is saved by the system when a method is called and is the location to which the system should return after a method ends is known as the ____________.

Every method must have a nonempty parameter list.

A mathematical expression such as A * B cannot be passed as an argument to a method containing a reference parameter.

When a ____________ is provided for a parameter, it is possible to call the method without explicitly passing an argument into the parameter.

When using the debugger, which command lets you execute a method call without seeing the individual statements within the method?

The statements that make up the method body are enclosed inside a set of curly braces.

When an argument is ____________, only a copy of the argument's value is passed into the parameter variable.

The ____________ is a collection of statements that are performed when a method is executed.

When a ____________ finishes, it returns a value to the statement that called it.

Which of the following is the best type of tool for breaking up input validation into separate steps?

If a specific task is performed in several places in a program, a method can be written once to perform that task and then be executed any time it is needed.
