it will compile but we get the error while executing the code with an error as "NoSuchMethodError".because the JVM calls the main() by the class name with static keyword.i.e.,
Note:With static keyword we can call the any method by using class name itself,no need of any object creation and calling the respective method.
In the same way the JVM calls the main() with class name by using the static keyword.So,static is mandatory to write.

No compile error.
But, main method will not be accessible by JVM.
