A method is a function/subroutine which is associated with an object. In Ruby, 
there are no functions/subroutines which are not methods.

For more than you probably ever wanted to know:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_(computer_science)

Otherwise, you probably want to start at the beginning -- pick up a Ruby book 
(or tutorial, etc) which is targeted at non-programmers. If you don't know 
what a method is, you're going to have to learn object-oriented programming 
as you learn Ruby.
