-Methods are functions that belong to a class.  The two ways to define a function that belongs to a class are inside the class definition and outside the class definition.  In order to define a method outside the class definition, you must first declare it inside the class.  You can then define your function outside of the class by specifying the name of the class and following it with the "::" operator.+In C++, you can define data inside of classes for the sake of using them with member functions. Access specifiers can be used to determine where these variables can be called from, and which functions can call them. (This is further described down below)

 +Methods are functions that belong to a class.  The two ways to define a function that belongs to a class are inside the class definition and outside the class definition.  In order to define a method outside the class definition, you must first declare it inside the class.  You can then define your function outside of the class by specifying the name of the class and following it with the "::" operator. These functions are meant to be used alongside member data.
