Is a constructor a method?
Short answer. No. It has the class name and no return type at all.
What must every method declare?
A return type, such as int or void.
Remember
| Constructor: class name |
| No return type, not even void |
| Method: needs a return type |
It looks like a method. But it is not one. Box of v is the constructor. Same name as the class, no return type. Area is a method with an int return type. A constructor has the class name. No return type. A method needs one.
