Difference between Static methods and Instance methods

Question

I was just reading over the text given to me in my textbook and I\'m not really sure I understand what it is saying. It\'s basically telling me that static methods or class

Answer 1

The behavior of an object depends on the variables and the methods of that class. When we create a class we create an object for it. For static methods, we don't require them as static methods means all the objects will have the same copy so there is no need of an object. e.g:

Myclass.get();

In instance method each object will have different behaviour so they have to call the method using the object instance. e.g:

Myclass x = new Myclass();
x.get();
