Time	Narration
00:01	Welcome to the spoken tutorial on static members in C++.
00:06	In this tutorial we will learn,
00:09	Static keyoword.
00:10	Static variable
00:12	Static function
00:14	We will do this through an examples.
00:17	To record this tutorial, I am using
00:20	Ubuntu OS version 11.04
00:24	g++ compiler v. 4.6.1
00:29	Let us start with an introduction to static.
00:33	Static variables are initialized to zero before the first object is created.
00:39	Only one copy of the static variable exists for the whole program.
00:44	All the objects will share that variable.
00:47	It will remain in the memory till the end of the program.
00:52	Static functions
00:54	A static function may be called by itself without depending on any object.
01.00	To access a static function we use,
01.03	classname :: (scope resolution operator) and the staticfunction();
01:09	Let us see an example on static memebers.
01:13	I have already typed the code on the editor.
01:17	Note that our file name is static dot cpp
01:21	Let me explain the code now.
01:24	This is our headerfile as iostream
01:27	Here we are using the std namespace
01:31	Then we have class statex.
01:34	In this we have a non-static variable as x declared as private.
01:40	Then we have a static variable sum declared as public.
01:45	This is our constructor statex.
01:48	In this we have incremented sum.
01:52	Then the value of sum is stored in x.
01:55	Here we have a static function stat.
01:58	In this we print the sum.
02:01	Then we have function number.
02:04	Here we print the number x
02:07	The class is closed here.
02:10	To declare the static variable globally we use scope resolution operator.
02:15	To access a static variable we write as:
02:19	datatype classname scope resolution operator and static variable name.
02:26	Now the storage is allocated to variable sum.
02:31	It is initialized to 0.
02:33	This is our main function.
02:35	Here we create objects of class statex.
02:39	As o1, o2 and o3.
02:42	Then we call the function number using the objects o1, o2 and o3.
02:49	Static function stat is accessed here.
02:52	Using the class name and the scope resolution operator.
02:56	Here we print the static variable sum.
03:00	And this is the return statement.
03:03	Let us execute the program.
03:05	Open the terminal window by pressing Ctrl, Alt and T keys simultaneously on your keyboard.
03:13	To compile type
03:15	g++ space static dot cpp space hyphen o space stat. Press Enter
03:24	Type ./stat (dot slash stat). Press Enter
03:28	The output is displayed as,
03:30	Number is: 0, 1, 2
03:33	Result is: 3
03:35	Now static var sum is 3
03:38	Now I will explain the output:
03:39	Let me resize the window.
03:42	Here, First the value of number is 0 ie. x is 0.
03:49	The first object gives the value as 0
03:53	Then we have the value as 1 ie. x =1
03:58	The second object gives the value as 1
04:01	And the third object gives the value as 2
04:05	Then we call the stat function which gives the value of sum.
04:10	Result is sum.
04:13	Here sum is incremented and stored in x.
04:18	Hence this will gived the value as 3.
04:22	Thus the final output we have is.
04:25	Static var sum is 3.
04:28	Now let us create another object here as o4.
04:34	I will call the function number using the object o4.
04:43	Click on Save
04:45	Let us execute.
04:48	Press the arrow key twice.
04:51	Again Press the arrow key twice.
04:54	You can see that Result is 4.
04:57	Now static var sum is 4
05:00	As the 4th object is created.
05:03	This brings us to the end of this tutorial.
05:06	Come back to the slides.
05:08	Let us summarize:
05:10	In this tutorial, we learned,
05:12	static keyword.
05:13	Static variable
05:15	eg. static int sum;
05:18	Static function.
05:19	eg. static void stat()
05:22	As an assignment
05:23	Create a class that declares a static variable.
05:26	Decrement the variable.
05:29	And print the value.
