Example

A method without any return values:

public class Main {

  static void myMethod() {

    System.out.println("I just got executed!");

  }

 

  public static void main(String[] args) {

    myMethod();

  }

}

Definition and Usage

The void keyword specifies that a method should not have a return value.

More Examples

Tip: If you want a method to return a value, you can use a primitive data type (such as int, char, etc.) instead of void, and use the return keyword inside the method:

Example

public class Main {

  static int myMethod(int x) {

    return 5 + x;

  }

 

  public static void main(String[] args) {

    System.out.println(myMethod(3));

  }

}

// Outputs 8 (5 + 3)
