In [object orientation%|%object-oriented computing], a '''method''' is a
function ([proc]) that is bound to a particular [object] (a [class] or
[instance]).  A method might be bound to an [object]  when the object is
created, or only when the method is invoked (late binding).

`method` is a command available inside object definition contexts in various OO extensions:

   * [TclOO]:  `[oo::define]` and `[oo::objdefine]`
   * [ITcl]:  `[itcl::class]`
   * [Snit]:  `widget`, `widgetadaptor`, ...
