'Whats the difference between Method and Functions in AwesomeWM

In each class of AwesomeWM documents there is two section. Methods and Functions. Whats the difference between the two. I searched in the lua document and can't found anything there either. Here is a sample

Functions:

awful.screen.getbycoord (x, y)  Return the screen index corresponding to the given (pixel) coordinates.
awful.screen.focus (_screen)    Move the focus to a screen.

Methods

screen:instances ()     Get the number of instances.
screen:screen ()    Iterate over screens.
screen:count ()     Get the number of screens.

Thanks
