Template method is usually final to prevent override and defines algorithm steps.
Step 2: Check options for final method with implementation
public final void templateMethod() { step1(); step2(); } declares a final method with steps; others are abstract, private, or static which are incorrect.
Final Answer:
public final void templateMethod() { step1(); step2(); } -> Option A
Quick Check:
Template method is final with implementation = public final void templateMethod() { step1(); step2(); } [OK]
Quick Trick:Template method is final to fix algorithm steps [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
Declaring template method abstract without implementation
Making template method private or static
Allowing subclasses to override template method
