Question
![The main method in Java always uses the header "public static void main(String[] args)". Match each part of the header with its definition below.
- **public**: Parameter list
- **void**: Access modifier
- **main**: Return type
- **String[] args**: Method name
This exercise is designed to help you understand the components of the main method signature in Java. Each part has a specific role:
- **public**: This should be labeled as the "Access modifier," meaning it defines who can access the method.
- **void**: This should be labeled as the "Return type," indicating the method does not return a value.
- **main**: This should be labeled as the "Method name," referring to the name of the method being executed.
- **String[] args**: This should be labeled as the "Parameter list," which holds command-line arguments in an array of strings.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/0cc153ae-b205-4fb2-9991-7cf6a21d5016/4eeff498-32ce-491b-83ab-2df883426066/dgwalvf_thumbnail.png)
