Definition:-A static is a keyword or a modifier. The static keyword can be used with a class, field, method, property, operator, events or constructor without any instance or object. The static member's which we declared can be accessed directly with a type (syntax) <class name>.<member's name>.

```
Code:- Using system;namespace static_variables{ class om{public static string name, location;public static int age;public static void Get_Details();{Console.WriteLine("Name-{0},Location-{1},age{2} ", name,location,age);}}class details{static void Main(string[] args){om.name="Vivekanand";om.location="Jhunsi";om.age= 20;}}}
```
