Introduction: Java is an object-oriented programming language developed by James Gosling in 1995. Java is an independent programming language because the code is compiled into byte codes and stored in JVM(Java Virtual Machine). Java is a class-based language.

Keyword Java has a few pre-defined and reserved words that cannot be used as the class names, method names, or variables in the code. Java has almost 50 keywords that have special functionality. The keywords help us to provide a specific behavior or functionality to the objects, classes, methods, and variables. We use a lot of methods, classes, and variables in java. Sometimes we inherit the existing classes or override the methods to reuse them instead of creating new ones, which might increase complexity. But what if we do not want anyone working on the same code with us to inherit specific classes or override specific methods. How do we stop them from doing that? Do we have any keyword that makes the methods, classes, and variables unchangeable? Yes, Java provides us with a lot of features and keywords. It provides us with a keyword "final" to act as a non-modifier. We are going to discuss the “final” keyword in java in this article.
