In the case of variables, the two can be combined. This occurs, for example, with the fields Math.PI and Math.E.
I am not sure about methods, but I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to combine the two in this case.
Static is a keyword which is used to call the methods or variables without creation of that class object. It will directly calls the respective method and varialbles.
yes bcoz static variables
In java we access static variables and static methods without creating objects. i.e.,we can access directly by using classname we can also access static variables and static methods by using objects which are created by using class where the static variables and static methods are available
static
Yes, they can
No. You will get compilation errors. The complier will complain that you are trying to access non static variables from inside a static method. A static method can access only static variables.
Variables cannot access variables; only methods can access variables. Non-static methods (also known as instance methods) are local to an object of the class and therefore have access to a "this" reference (referring to the current instance of the class, the object upon which the method was invoked), but static variables are local to the class itself. These variables are shared by all objects of the class and are therefore accessible to non-static methods. Static variable are also accessible to static methods and are therefore accessible even when no objects of the class exist.
Use the "static" keyword to declare a static variable within a function like shown below. <?php function fun() { static $variable; static $another_variable = ''; } ?>
No, a static variable means that there is only one copy of that variable, and it is shared by all members of the class, or by all callers of a function.A variable that is read-only would be marked as const or final (depending on language).
No. The static keyword only specifies the way a method is declared, used and handled by the JVM and the other classes and does not modify the size it occupies in the memory.
The classes which have one or more abstract methods are abstract. To declare a class as abstract, use the abstract keyword in front of the class keyword, before the class declaration. Abstract classes cannot be instantiated. Similarly the new keyword cannot be used to create an object of the abstract class. Remember that the constructors and static variables cannot be declared as abstract. Any subclass of an abstract class must either implement all of the abstract methods in the superclass or be itself declared abstract.
Static Blocks are always executed first. A static block is executed when your class is charged but a static method is executed only when is called, therefor first the class is charged and then is executed a method.
