Thank you for the precise and clear answer. Does "variables and function (AKA methods)" have a defined way to learn them I mean what they call them in the programming world? There must be a term for that.

I think they're just called variables and functions in general. In functional programming, you would have functions everywhere, as its name suggests. In object-oriented programming, you encounter object methods (in classes) rather than functions. They're still pretty much the same thing, though.
