Subject: Understanding the return method

Hi,

As always, I'm asking simple questions sorry.

Please help me to understand the "return" method because I dont see
where or how to use it.
Here I'm using the return method but the thing is that if remove it, it
also works, so I was wondering why would you use it if by defaul all
methods return a value?

def multiply(val1, val2 )
     result = val1 * val2
     return result
end

value = multiply( 10, 20 )
puts value

Can some one show me the main purpose of using the return method?

Again I'm currently trying to understand the basics, so please be
patient : )

Thanks
