Static block is executed the first time the class is loaded in JVM where as static methods are executed only when they are called.Hence static block can be used to perform key operations which could be required when the class is loaded.

Static block excution is done at class loading tim there is no need of object creation so we can save some memory in heap.

static block is executed whenever a class is loaded by the JVM.....
hence in case you want certain code to executed or say some objects of a class avaliable to ur application as soon as the application starts you can put in the relevant code there....
