What is static import in Java?

As import statement allows to use a class without its package qualification, static import allows to access the static members of a class without class qualifications. For Example, to access the static methods you need to call the using class name −

Math.sqrt(169);

But, using static import you can access the static methods directly.

Example

Live Demo

import static java.lang.Math.*;

public class Sample{
   public static void main(String args[]){
   System.out.println(sqrt(169));
   }
}

Output
