In PHP, there is no instantiation of objects and direct call to function. What is it called? It's been a long time since I forgot about it.

It means that there must be a function in the class, which can be directly called externally without instantiating the class,

I used to come here, but I forgot about it after a long time..

Sorry for the trouble..Thank you!!!

The public static function in the class can be called through the :: symbol

CLASS::METHOD() static method

This is called a static method
