Sealed class is used to define the inheritance level of a class.
The sealed modifier is used to prevent derivation from a class. An error occurs if a sealed class is specified as the base class of another class.
Some points to remember: 1. A class, which restricts inheritance for security reason is declared, sealed class. 2. Sealed class is the last class in the hierarchy. 3. Sealed class can be a derived class but can't be a base class. 4. A sealed class cannot also be an abstract class. Because abstract class has to provide functionality and here we are restricting it to inherit.
