In Java, methods have the following characteristics:

Method name: The name of the method, used to uniquely identify it.
Parameter list: A list of parameters that a method can accept, including the type and order of the parameters.
Return type: The data type returned after the method has been executed.
Access modifiers: The visibility of a method, such as public, private, protected, and default (package-private).
Method body: the specific implementation logic of a method, including the executable code block and the return statement.
Exception declaration: types of exceptions that may be thrown by the method.
Is it static: Is it a static method, i.e. does it belong to the class instead of the object.
Is it abstract: whether it is an abstract method, meaning it needs to be implemented by a subclass.
Is it final: Is it a final method, meaning can it be overridden by subclasses.
Is it synchronous: whether it is a synchronous method, that is, whether it is locked to achieve thread safety.
Is it native: whether it is a local method, that is, whether it calls local code.
Does it accept variable-length parameters: Does it accept a list of parameters with varying lengths.
