In C# and Java you can’t access a non-static method without creating an instance of the class.

class Test {
    public void Func() {}
}

:white_check_mark:

public static void main() {
    Test instance = new Test();

    instance.Func();
}

:x:

public static void main() {
    Test.Func();
}

(If Func is marked static then this is reversed)
