What is static member?

Question

Please explain it with an example

Answer 1

Static member means it is directly a member of a class and can be called by writing the class name and the variable or method name

Answer 2

static members are those which belongs to the class and you can access these members without instantiating the class.

public class MyClass {
public static void sample(){
System.out.println("Hello");
}
public static void main(String args[]){
MyClass.sample();
}
}

Answer 3

A static member is bound to the class itself instead of objects of the class. Meaning, you can call a static member or use a static variable without creating an object of the class. The following code is a little example. The Sololearn Java course will give you more examples =)
