Answer Posted / kishore reddy

static{} blocks are executed on its own as soon as the
program starts. i.e before the main method is called where
as static() is called ONLY from another static method ie
main method.

static() has several restrictions:
1. Can ONLY call other static ()
2. MUST ONLY access static data
3. cant refer to super or this
