Static vs Instance
I have two statements that I would like examples/deep explanations on.
Here there are :
(1)
"Always reference static variables and methods from a class name (rather
then a reference variable) to improve readability and avoid errors."
(2)
"Do not pass a parameter from a constructor to initialize a static data
field. It is better to use a setter method to change the static data field."

Re: Static vs Instance
I agree with (1)
I don't know about (2)
What author recommends those?
If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
