What is the difference betwen invoke and call?
There is no practical difference in the meaning of “invoke” versus “call” in Java programming, both mean that one class executes a method or constructor on itself or another class. In general terms the word invoke means to call upon an agent for help or guidance, or appeal for confirmation or corroboration, or summon an entity. Java programs can also be thought of as a sequence or network of messages that are sent between classes to trigger behaviour and get a response. The metaphor is basically the same in both cases.
