Static variables are stored in BSS (Block Started by Sybmbol) segment. BSS is part of Data Segment.

all initialized static variables will stored in data part
and all uninitialized static variable (default initialized to 0) are stored BSS..
both data part and BSS are part of data segment.

that's the problem I had with bloomberg, this question is not clear. There are many kinds of static variables, local static, global static and class static and they mean different things in c/c++/java. How am I going to answer this?

btw, the general answer is static variables are in the data segment(global) part of the address space of this program. However, it really depends on the implementation and the defintion

in c++ both local static(function scope) and global static are stored in the same place in memory(not registers). Name mangling is done i.e local static var are fgiven a name with their func name and those which are global have file name .

static variables are stored in permanent memory storage which are retained till the end of the program ie bss(block start by symbol)[uninitialized data] segment of data segment

static variables always stores at data segments and it is permanents storage

I think it is simply the Heap section since it is the class variable and has class scope.

the heap always stores the dynamically allocated memory. There is always a separate segment of space called data segment where the global and perhaps the static variables are stored. This data segment is different from the code segment of the program and also different from the heap and stack.

From the wikipedia, it seems all static(global/local) are stored in bss:

en.wikipedia.org_wiki_.bss

Uninitialized static variables are stored in BSS segment and initialized static variables are stored in data segment.

static int i;
printf("%u",&i);
i=10;
printf("%u",&i);

both print same address how??????
