Can you give us an example
Yes ! For eg.
final SomeClass objReference = new SomeClass();
objReference -> final reference;
new SomeClass() -> Object on heap;
now pointing the reference to some other new Object on heap.
objReference = new SomeClass("anothet object ");
which is not correct ie wrong.
But on other hand we can modify the object which is pointed by objReference ie new SomeClass();
eg objReference.modifyMe(); which modifies the object not the reference !
