Answer / ajeesh

access specifier
One of the techniques in object-oriented programming is
encapsulation. It concerns the hiding of data in a class and
making this class available only through methods. In this
way the chance of making accidental mistakes in changing
values is minimized. Java allows you to control access to
classes, methods, and fields via so-called access specifiers.
