Explain how python programs are structured and give an example of how methods are initiated
Python programs like most declarative programming languages are made up of small subroutines called "methods". To set-up an example program, you need to define a method (eg. def someMethod(): ) and then specify what you want that method to do. For example, it could print something to the console (like: print("Hello World!")) or it could perform a sequence of steps (aka an algorithm). In order to run the program, you need to declare the method in a separate section of the program (i.e. outside of the method you've defined) - typically in a main method (def main():) and then a declaration is needed to initialise the main method (if name = "main":).
