Class methods vs. Instance methods
763890Mar 5 2010 — edited Mar 7 2010When shall we use class methods instead of instance methods , and vice versa?
By going through the Java Tutorial, it only says the following.
A common use for static methods is to access static fields....
I am definitely sure that class methods aren't just exist for accessing static fields of a class.
PS. I understand that instance methods belong to the object that is instantiated and class methods belong to the class itself.
