Ans. 1. public is the access modifier that makes the method accessible from anywhere, static is the keyword that makes it accessible even without creating any object, void means it doesn't return anything , String args[] is the array of argument that the method receives. 2. If we use main without the string args , it will compile correctly as Java will treat it as just another method. It wont be the method "main" which Java looks for when it looks to execute the class and hence will throw Error: Main method not found in class , please define the main method as: public static void main(String[] args) 3. Main is not a keyword but a special string that Java looks for while initiating the main thread. | ||||
