What is diference between Abstract method and static method? Can we define the static method in abstract class?

    Static methods can be defined in an abstract class. However, you cannot force a derived class to implement a static method. If you think about it, such a method would be useless. Static methods are invoked using type names, not instance variables. If I call MyBaseClass.MyMethod, then MyBaseClass.MyMethod will always be invoked. How would it do you any good to force MyChildClass, which inherits from MyBaseClass, to also a implement a static MyMethod.
