What does it mean in java?

Question

public static void main(String args[])

Answer 1

Public : an access specifier
Static: a keyword which allows us to run this method without making its object
Void: a return type with no data type
Main : name of method
String []= an string array
Args: name of array

Details of this are given in the course

Answer 2

public: Access specifier, this one means that this bit of code can be accessed by any other class or object or whatever
static: a keyword to mark a method as one that can run without an object instance
void: return type, this case meaning that nothing is returned
main: the name of a special method (standard) that acts as an entry point for code
String[] args: An array of strings that are accepted as parameters for the main method.

Answer 3

Aman sharma

I think explanation is given here

It's a entry point of Java program.

Answer 4

Yes these are correct but make the function static then only you can call the function without any object otherwise you have to make an object to call the methods

Answer 5

Aman sharma no it will not work because main method act as a entry point for the program as stated in 👑 Prometheus 🇸🇬 answer you can see there

Answer 6

Aman sharma In void methods you can't use return keyword to return the values
you can use the print statement as you are using in any type of methods

Answer 7

Yup 👍

Answer 8

Oh, thnx I never thought that this String https://www.sololearn.com/learning/2137 could get me what I want 😂

Answer 9

₱łɎɄ₴Ⱨ 🇮🇳 If we mark function return type as void then will it be able to return all data types

like if
public void example(int a, int b)
{
int c=a+b;
System.out.print("Your output is");
System.out.print(c);
}

will it return a int and String both

Answer 10

are these correct?👇

public int sum(int a, int b)
{
return a+b;
}
sum(5,-5);

And the other one 👇

public void sum(int a,int b)
{
System.out.print("The sum of the two numbers is:"+(a+b));
}
sum(5,-5);

Answer 11

Okay just I need to add a static keyword in both the functions after the access specifier 😁

Answer 12

₱łɎɄ₴Ⱨ 🇮🇳 Will a program run without method main?
I think No but asked for confirmation.

will a program run if we make a method with this name
public static void anynams(String[] args)

instead of
public static void main(String args[])

Answer 13

₱łɎɄ₴Ⱨ 🇮🇳 yeah, I read 👑 Prometheus 🇸🇬 answer but wanted to know if we can use any name for the main method.

Thank you 😁
