Answer / indrabahadur singh

Access specifiers ::

The access specifier determines how accessible the field is
to code in other classes. Access ranges from totally
accessible to totally inaccessible. You can optionally
declare a field with an access specifier keyword: public,
private, or protected.


Access Modifiers ::

You can optionally declare a field with a modifier keyword:
final or volatile and/or static and/or transient.

what is the Diff. between Access Specifiers and Access Modifiers?..

Answer / prema

Access Specifier: It controls the access of class members
and variables by other objects.
Types of access specifiers in Java:
public
private
protected
friendly or package or default

Access Modifiers: Modifiers determine or define how the data
members and methods are used in other classes and objects.
Modifiers in Java:
static
final
abstract
native
synchronized

The main difference between access specifiers and modifiers
is that access specifiers define the accessibility of the
data members in a class and modifiers determine how these
methods are used and modified by other classes
