Question

Identify the false statement.

a. When a method is declared with public access, methods in other classes can call it.
b. Not all methods return a value, but every method requires a return type.
c. A method header is also called an implementation.

Answer 1

The false statement is (c), which incorrectly states that a method header is also called an implementation. The method header is the part that defines the method's name, return type, and parameters, while the method implementation is the code that executes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement (c) 'A method header is also called an implementation' is the false statement in the given options. A method header, also known as a method signature, defines the method's name, return type, and parameters, but does not include the method's body or implementation. Instead, the method implementation is the code block that follows the method header, which contains the actual instructions that the method executes.

To correct the false statement : A method header is also called an implementation, we can rephrase it to 'The part of a method that includes its execution code is called the implementation', to accurately describe the relationship between these terms.
