// Method represents a callable given a `Name` and whether the method is a constant.
// If the method is `Const` no transaction needs to be created for this
// particular Method call. It can easily be simulated using a local VM.
// For example a `Balance()` method only needs to retrieve something
// from the storage and therefore requires no Tx to be send to the
// network. A method such as `Transact` does require a Tx and thus will
// be flagged `false`.
// Input specifies the required input parameters for this gives method.
