what is a static function in java code example

Example 1: static in java

//Java Program to get the cube of a given number using the static method  
using static before a method or variable we can access it by not creating a 
instance of it.in the program we directly used student.cube(5)
class Calculate{  
  static int cube(int x){  
  return x*x*x;  
  }  
  
  public static void main(String args[]){  
  int result=Calculate.cube(5);  
  System.out.println(result);  
  }  
}

Example 2: what is static method

A static method belongs to the class rather than the object.
There is no need to create the object to call the static methods.
A static method can access and change the value of the static variable

Example 3: static in java

static keyword is a non-access modifier. static keyword can be used with 
class level variable, block, method and inner class or nested class.

Example 4: Static method in java

We can declare a method as static by adding keyword “static” before method name.
Let’s see example on static method in java.

public class StaticMethodExample
{
   static void print()
   {
      System.out.println("in static method.");
   }
   public static void main(String[] args)
   {
      StaticMethodExample.print();
   }
}
