This code example is a basic method signature: <codeblock>returnType methodName(pList1, pList2) {</codeblock> where <parml> <plentry> <pt>pList1</pt> <pd>is the first variable declaration passed to methodName</pd> </plentry> <plentry> <pt>pList2</pt> <pd>is the second variable declaration passed to methodName</pd> </plentry> </parml>
This code example is a basic method signature:
