Hi,
Can anyone share below doubts.
1.Why java is not 100% pure object oriented language?

2.What is the meaning of "final" keyword

Thanks,

For Final Keyword,

The final modifier can be applied to four Java constructs:

1. variables: a final variable can be set once and only once.
2. fields: a final field can also be set only once, by the constructor of the class which defines it.
3. methods: a final method cannot be overridden nor hidden.
4. classes: a final class cannot be extended.

Notice how using final is an entirely negative act. The final keyword works by subtracting, limiting default language mechanisms: the ability to override a method, to set a variable or a field. The motivations behind using final fall into three broad categories: correctness, robustness, and finally performance.

One reason which i think is important Java didn't allow you the multiple inheritance which is the basic functionality of the Object Oriented Language....

If I am wrong please let me know....
