Could someone explains javas main function to me?

Hello

In Strongly Typed Languages such as Java and C#, an application must have an Entry Point. Strongly Typed means that unlike Javascript, you must define the data type of each variable explicitly.

Back to the question.

if you recall, main is a public static void main(..........) { ,,,,,,,,,,, }

Using main, you "Enter" the application ... meaning you start with main and call other functions that call other functions and in turn calls other functions ... and so on.

These function are Stacked in "Memory Stack" .... think of Stack as bunch of boxes on top of each other ... function main at the bottom (first one), the first function you call off main is next ... and so on.

Now think about .... when the function are done doing what they supposed to be doing, they exit, and one box get offloaded off the stack.

So eventually all functions are done (all boxes are removed of the stack .... and you down back to the first box ... main.

But main is

public static void main(..........) { ,,,,,,,,,,, }

it return nothing ... so when you exit main .... you are don done done ... no boxes left in the stack.

Hope this help

one more thing ... main is a static method ... there can only be one main ... hence you enter it once, and you exit it once.
