| Description | Keyword used to state that a value, class, or method can't be changed. If the final keyword is used to define a variable, the variable can't be changed within the program. When used to define a class, a final class cannot be subclassed. When used to define a method, a final method can't be overridden by subclasses. This keyword is an essential part of Java programming and is not usually used with Processing. Consult a Java language reference or tutorial for more information, such as this one. |
