In C programming, when static is used on a class data member, it causes only one copy of
that member to be shared by all the objects of its class.
#include <stdio.h>
/* function declaration */
void func(void);
static int count = 5; /* global variable */
main()
{
while(count--)
{
func();
}
return 0;
}
/* function definition */
void func( void )
{
static int i = 5; /* local static variable */
i++;
printf("i is %d and count is %d\n", i, count);
}
When the above code is compiled and executed, it produces the following result:
i is 6 and count is 4
i is 7 and count is 3
