Exactly.

If I'm not mistaken, and please teach me if I am wrong, they are 
practically free functions in Java as well. That Java class is working 
as a namespace. So, the function above is the same as the following 
free-standing function in D, C++, C, and many other languages:

   void Algo_drawLine(Canvas c, Pos from, Pos to) { ...... };
