Answer 1

"define" method for facilitating module definition and "require" method for handling dependency loading

define is used to define named or unnamed modules based on the proposal using the following signature:

definition function /*function for instantiating the module or object*/
);

require on the other hand is typically used to load code in a top-level JavaScript file or within a module should you wish to dynamically fetch dependencies
