    Java is a high-level, class-based, object-oriented programming language that is designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible. It is a general-purpose programming language intended to let programmers write once, run anywhere (), meaning that compiled Java code can run on all platforms that support Java without the need to recompile.

The main reason for this omission is to not ...

  8. Processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processing

    When programming in Processing, all additional classes defined will be treated as inner classes when the code is translated into pure Java before compiling. This means that the use of static variables and methods in classes is prohibited unless Processing is explicitly told to code in pure Java mode.
