Java is a static language. The language which needs to be declared before compilation is known as Static Language. ex-Java, C, C++. These are static languages. That means every time you create memory for variable or struct or object, you have to declare them first so that your compiler understands what kind of data and how much data it is going to store and then that memory for object will allocate during run time Languages ​​in which the allocation of memory is decided during run time and there is no need to declare variables are known as dynamic languages. ex-python

Upon a bit of reading, I just found out that Java (with Reflection) is considered a dynamic programming language. This topic appears to be related somehow to a language's type system, though not as closely. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming_language https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4913105/what-qualifies-a-programming-language-as-dynamic https://www.pcmag.com/encyclopedia/term/dynamic-programming-language

In static language , compiler decides what amount of memory should be assigned to a variable during run time whereas in Dynamic languages allocation of memory is decided during run time
