Writing an instance method returning nothing

How do you write an instance method that returns no argument and value? This is in Java.

For example is it:

public string name()
{
name()
}

or:

public string name()?

You can't because what you said doesn't make sense. Here's why.

1) A method that returns no value is a void method.
2) Methods don't return arguments only values. They accept arguments only.

Void method


private void sayHi() {
  System.out.println("Hello there";
}

a method that returns a value

private String getHelloMessage() { 
   return "Hello there";
}
