The main() Method

The main() method is the entry point for standalone Java applications.
To create an application, you write a class definition that includes a main() method.
To execute an application, type java at the command line, followed by the name of the class containing the main() method.

The signature for main() is:


public static void main(String[] args)
The return type must be void.
The main() method must be public.
It is static so that it can be executed without constructing an instance of the application class.
