Have a look at the Public static void main().
Public: main() method is the first method called by java environment when a program is executed so it has to accessible to from the java environment. Hence the access specifier is Public.
static: Java environment should be able to call this method without creating an instance of the class.so this method must be declared as static.
void: Void does not return any thing so main() method is void.
