Why keyword 'this' cannot be used in a static method?

Question

Why can\'t the keyword this be used in a static method? I am wondering why C# defines this constraint. What benefits can be gained by this constraint?

Answer 1

The short answer for you will be: this refers to an instance of a class which is non existing in a static scope.

But please, look for a good book/class and try to understand basic object oriented concepts before going further on any object oriented programming language.
