jsp methods...

[Campbell]

Is there a way to add methods, written in jsp, to a jsp file, other than by calling beans?   ex: <% here is my jsp...             int x = 2;             out.println( xsqr( x ) );      %>       <%        // and here is my jsp method...         public int xsqr( int x )         {             return ( x * x );         }     %>        // which of course doesn't work... :^?
