Methods vs Functions

Question

Hello

I am not sure if you allow beginner questions here.  If not I apologise and will leave :)

I am new to programming.  Only started yesterday after tinkering with AutoIT a little.  I was advised that C# had the best balance of functionality vs ease of learning compared with C++ and VB.  While waiting for my text books to arrive I am doing a little background reading.

I am struggling to get my head around Methods.  Are they the same as Functions in other languages?  Can you create a Method, or are they 'built in' to C#?

Does anybody have any tips for me on learning C#?

Like I said, my apologies if my questions are too basic for the forum.

Thanks

M
