it might sound odd but i know what its for but i dont get why it comes before main how does it work please.....

Answer 1

In java Class is the blueprint of all the objects
Main is a static method (Static method means only one copy of the method is formed for all objects) from where the compilation begins in Java.
As all the methods belong to a class Main also belongs to the class thereby comes after the class name

class abc
{
public static void main (String args [])
{
}//end of main
}//end of class
