* Programming languages offer many closely-related concepts for describing blocks of code that can be executed with input parameters and return output parameters, possibly causing side effects.

* The `FULL_NAME` field specifies the method's fully-qualified name, including information about the namespace it is contained in if applicable, the name field is the function's short name. The field `IS_EXTERNAL` indicates whether it was possible to identify a method body for the method. This is true for methods that are defined in the source program, and false for methods that are dynamically linked to the program, that is, methods that exist in an external dependency.
* Line and column number information is specified in the optional fields `LINE_NUMBER`, `COLUMN_NUMBER`, `LINE_NUMBER_END`, and `COLUMN_NUMBER_END` and the name of the source file is specified in `FILENAME`. An optional hash value MAY be calculated over the function contents and included in the `HASH` field.
* Finally, the fully qualified name of the program constructs that the method is immediately contained in is stored in the `AST_PARENT_FULL_NAME` field and its type is indicated in the `AST_PARENT_TYPE` field to be one of `METHOD`, `TYPE_DECL` or `NAMESPACE_BLOCK`.

For languages like Javascript, it is common that we may know the (short-) name of the invoked method, but we do not know at compile time which method will actually be invoked, e.g., because it depends on a dynamic import.

This is true in languages such as C and Java, but not for languages such as Scala where the value of the block is given by that of the last expression it contains.
