Name the keyword that makes a variable belong to a class, rather than being defined for each instance of the class?
Correct answer: B. static
- A. abstract
- B. static
- C. volatile
- D. final
Explanation
The static keyword makes a variable belong to the class itself, so one shared copy exists rather than a separate copy for every object. The other keywords control inheritance, visibility of updates, or reassignment.
