Create Static Classes

In addition to declaring methods as being static, now you also can declare classes as being static.

The purpose of a static class is to provide a set of static utility methods scoped to the name of the class, much as you see done with the Convert class in the Framework Class Library.


In C# 2.0 you can declare an entire class as being static to signal that you’ve scoped a set of static utility methods to that class.
