Keywords doubt -Please help me

[bala_chocos]

hi guys
whether strictfp is java keyword or not
whether main is java keyword or not

[Carl Trusiak]

strictfp is a new keyword introduced for JDK 1.2. Details on it and it's uses are HERE .
main isn't a keyword. The only restriction there is on main is the signiture of the main method that is used by the JVM to run a class. You can have as many main methods in your class that you wish with any method signiture that you wish.

strictfp is a keyword
main is not
I tried this program:
class A
{ int strictfp = 1; // compiler errror message
int main = 1; // it's OK
}
