Complete Java SE 8 Developer Bootcamp - The Three Faces of Final

The video tutorial explains the use of the 'final' modifier in Java, which prevents changes to variables, methods, and classes. It covers how 'final' makes variables constants, prevents method overriding, and stops class inheritance. Examples illustrate initialization rules for final variables and the implications of using 'final' with methods and classes. The tutorial also touches on polymorphism and mentions that Java's String class and enums are inherently final.
