Some built-in ActionScript classes have class members (static members). Class members (properties and methods) are accessed or invoked on the class name, not on an instance of the class. Therefore, you don't create an instance of the class to use those properties and methods.
For example, all the properties of the Math class are static. The following code invokes the max() method of the Math class to determine the larger of two numbers:
var largerNumber:Number = Math.max(10, 20); trace(largerNumber); // 20
For more information on static methods of the Math class, and examples of using them, see Math in the ActionScript 2.0 Language Reference.
