Hi Sherin,
the final key word acts like this,
a final class cannot be subclassed ie extended by another class,
a final method cannot be overidden and
a final variable ,once initialised ,cannot be assinged another value.
while static keyword will only make the method a class method instead of being an instance one.It does not ensure that the method will not be overidden.
