A get method returns a value. A set method changes the internal state of the object it is being called on (i.e. changing the value of an integer). – Azar Nov 05 '14 at 20:13

They are simple conventions designed to make it easier to tell when you get a value from a method or set a value to a method – MadProgrammer Nov 05 '14 at 20:15
