PHP object-oriented final class and final method

final---used before classes and methods.
Final class---cannot be inherited.
Final method---cannot be overridden.
Final classes cannot be inherited.
If we do not want a class to be inherited, we use final to modify the class. This class will not be inherited. For example, the Math class we set involves the mathematical calculation methods we want to do. These algorithms do not need to be modified or inherited. We set it to a final type.

The final method cannot be overridden
If we do not want a method in the class to be overridden by a subclass, we can set this method as a final method. You need to add the final modifier before this method.

If this method is overridden by a subclass, an error will occur.

 $b ? $a : $b ; } } //声明类SuperMath 继承自 Math类 class SuperMath extends Math { public final function max($a,$b){} } //执行会出错，final方法不能被重写。 ?>
