正如Jon已经说过的，静态变量，也称为类变量，是跨类实例存在的变量。

我在这里找到了一个例子:

public class StaticVariable
{
  static int noOfInstances;
  StaticVariable()
  {
    noOfInstances++;
  }
  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
    StaticVariable sv1 = new StaticVariable();
    System.out.println("No. of instances for sv1 : " + sv1.noOfInstances);

    StaticVariable sv2 = new StaticVariable();
    System.out.println("No. of instances for sv1 : "  + sv1.noOfInstances);
    System.out.println("No. of instances for st2 : "  + sv2.noOfInstances);

    StaticVariable sv3 = new StaticVariable();
    System.out.println("No. of instances for sv1 : "  + sv1.noOfInstances);
    System.out.println("No. of instances for sv2 : "  + sv2.noOfInstances);
    System.out.println("No. of instances for sv3 : "  + sv3.noOfInstances);
  }
}

程序输出如下:

正如我们在这个例子中看到的，每个对象都有自己的类变量副本。

C:\java>java StaticVariable
No. of instances for sv1 : 1
No. of instances for sv1 : 2
No. of instances for st2 : 2
No. of instances for sv1 : 3
No. of instances for sv2 : 3
No. of instances for sv3 : 3

静态成员是所有类实例和类本身上的相同成员。 非静态是每个实例(对象)的一个，所以在你的具体情况下，如果你不放置静态是浪费内存。

非常少，而且是静态的

因为它们都是常数，所以区别不大。对于大多数类数据对象，静态意味着与类本身相关联的东西，无论用new创建了多少个对象，都只有一个副本。

因为它是一个常量，所以它实际上可能不会存储在类中或实例中，但是编译器仍然不会让你从静态方法访问实例对象，即使它知道它们会是什么。如果您不使反射API成为静态的，那么它的存在也可能需要一些无意义的工作。

这是另一个简单的例子来理解静态，静态final, final变量的用法。代码注释有适当的解释。

public class City {

    // base price that is always same for all objects[For all cities].
    private static double iphone_base_price = 10000;

    // this is total price = iphone_base_price+iphone_diff;
    private double iphone_citi_price;

    // extra price added to iphone_base_price. It is constant per city. Every
    // city has its own difference defined,
    private final double iphone_diff;

    private String cityName = "";

    // static final will be accessible everywhere within the class but cant be
    // changed once initialized.
    private static final String countryName = "India";

    public City(String cityName, double iphone_diff) {
        super();
        this.iphone_diff = iphone_diff;
        iphone_citi_price = iphone_base_price + iphone_diff;
        this.cityName = cityName;

    }

    /**
     * get phone price
     * 
     * @return
     */
    private double getPrice() {

        return iphone_citi_price;
    }

    /**
     * Get city name
     * 
     * @return
     */
    private String getCityName() {

        return cityName;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        // 300 is the
        City newyork = new City("Newyork", 300);
        System.out.println(newyork.getPrice() + "  " + newyork.getCityName());

        City california = new City("California", 800);
        System.out.println(california.getPrice() + "  " + california.getCityName());

        // We cant write below statement as a final variable can not be
        // reassigned
        // california.iphone_diff=1000; //************************

        // base price is defined for a class and not per instances.
        // For any number of object creation, static variable's value would be the same
        // for all instances until and unless changed.
        // Also it is accessible anywhere inside a class.
        iphone_base_price = 9000;

        City delhi = new City("delhi", 400);
        System.out.println(delhi.getPrice() + "  " + delhi.getCityName());

        City moscow = new City("delhi", 500);
        System.out.println(moscow.getPrice() + "  " + moscow.getCityName());

        // Here countryName is accessible as it is static but we can not change it as it is final as well. 
        //Something are meant to be accessible with no permission to modify it. 
        //Try un-commenting below statements
        System.out.println(countryName);

        // countryName="INDIA";
        // System.out.println(countryName);

    }

}

以下是我的观点:

final           String CENT_1 = new Random().nextInt(2) == 0 ? "HEADS" : "TAILS";
final   static  String CENT_2 = new Random().nextInt(2) == 0 ? "HEADS" : "TAILS";

例子:

package test;

public class Test {

    final long OBJECT_ID = new Random().nextLong();
    final static long CLASSS_ID = new Random().nextLong();

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Test[] test = new Test[5];
        for (int i = 0; i < test.length; i++){
            test[i] = new Test();
            System.out.println("Class id: "+test[i].CLASSS_ID);//<- Always the same value
            System.out.println("Object id: "+test[i].OBJECT_ID);//<- Always different
        }
    }
}

关键是变量和函数可以返回不同的值。因此，最终变量可以被赋予不同的值。

对于final，可以在初始化时在运行时分配不同的值。 例如

class Test{
  public final int a;
}

Test t1  = new Test();
t1.a = 10;
Test t2  = new Test();
t2.a = 20; //fixed

因此，每个实例都有不同的字段a值。

对于静态final，所有实例共享相同的值，并且在第一次初始化后不能更改。

class TestStatic{
      public static final int a = 0;
}

TestStatic t1  = new TestStatic();
t1.a = 10; // ERROR, CAN'T BE ALTERED AFTER THE FIRST 
TestStatic t2  = new TestStatic();
t1.a = 20;   // ERROR, CAN'T BE ALTERED AFTER THE FIRST INITIALIZATION.
