When Marcus says that a final class cannot be subclassed, that means that it cannot have any subclasses. It says nothing about whether the final class is already a subclass of some other class (which it must be, if only of Object). If he'd said that a final class cannot be a subclass, then the statement would be incorrect. But "cannot be subclassed" means "you cannot extend a subclass from this one," nothing else.
Shan (or anyone else who knows)- what is the URL for Marcus' exam 3, anyway? It seems to have moved from where it was a couple months ago.
