class a
{
    static final  int a =5;
    static {
        System.out.println("hi");

    }
}
class b
{
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println(a.a);
    }   

}

why do on writing final keyword ,the static block doesn't run,and the out put comes to be 5,whereas if I remove final keyword ,the output comes hi 5
