main method in java

Hello Sir ,

I am new to java .

I have a question. And i am not getting its satisfactory answer.

We know that a static method can only access static variables in a class.

Then how can a main method which is also static method can access non static variables?

Plz help me

Yhanx in advance.

No object is required to access the static variable. Static variables can be accessed using class name.

Huh? No. I don't see how I would have said that. It's actually something you're not supposed to do.

By the way, it's very easy to write some test code to see yourself, instead of asking.
