Can we say Constructors are Methods in Java?

Question

As we know Java is an object oriented language. Everything is objects in Java. We also know that objects have something (instance variables / fields) and do something (methods).

Answer 1

Directly from the JLS (Chapter 8)

A constructor is used in the creation of an object that is an instance of a class (§12.5, §15.9). The SimpleTypeName in the ConstructorDeclarator must be the simple name of the class that contains the constructor declaration; otherwise a compile-time error occurs.

In all other respects, the constructor declaration looks just like a method declaration that has no result (§8.4.5).

Constructor declarations are not members. They are never inherited and therefore are not subject to hiding or overriding.
