A variable declared final cannot be changed in Java
Finalize is called by the garbage collector in Java
Finally is used with try catch block in Java. Before the program exits after executing the try block , its a good programming practice to free all the resources in finally block

In java, if a method is declared final it cannot be overridden. If a class is declared final, it cannot be extended and implicitly all the methods are final in such a class.

final is the keyword when final keyword is used for the class that class cannot be inherited and final method cannot be overloaded
finalize is a method which is used to invoke garbage collection it is used instead of destructor
finally is used in handling exceptions
