Static Class in C++

Class usually creates a new data type. Static specifies storage type. we can have static objects, and i feel there is no meaning of static class

In Java there is: a nested class can be static or not. Static classes only have
the scope of the outer class. Non-static classes belong to instantiations of
the outer class, i.e. no outer object, then no inner object of that non-static
class can be created.

Static Classes and Static Class Members (C#)

Static classes and class members are used to create data and functions that can be accessed without creating an instance of the class. Static class members can be used to separate data and behavior that is independent of any object identity: the data and functions do not change regardless of what happens to the object. Static classes can be used when there is no data or behavior in the class that depends on object identity.

Static Class

A class can be declared static, indicating that it contains only static members. It is not possible to create instances of a static class using the new keyword. Static classes are loaded automatically by the .NET Framework common language runtime (CLR) when the program or namespace containing the class is loaded.

Use a static class to contain methods that are not associated with a particular object. For example, it is a common requirement to create a set of methods that do not act on instance data and are not associated to a specific object in your code. You could use a static class to hold those methods.
