# Invocation Once you've declared a method you can run the code inside of it by writing the name of the method followed by `()` in a statement. ```java void doThing() { System.out.println("Hello from inside a method!"); } void main() { doThing(); } ``` Running the code in a method can be called a few things. "Running a method", "Calling a method", or "Invoking a method."[^wizard] You can call a method multiple times. If you do, then the code inside of it will be run multiple times. ```java void doThing() { System.out.println("Hello from inside a method!"); } void main() { doThing(); doThing(); } ``` [^wizard]: I like that last one because "invoking" makes me sound like a Wizard.
