Answer / vishal arora
This question leads to two things
1. modifier for abstract class or interface
2. modifier for members of abstarct class or interface
For first in abstract class and interface we can have
public , protected and default and not private if it is top
level otherwise private also if it is nested
for point 2
in an interface every member variable is public and final
in an abstract class you can assign any modifier to member
variables

Answer / dhiren
public accsess specifier means it can publically accessed
by the class whether it's subclass of that class or present
in same packege or diffrent classes.
private access specifier is private to that class i.e. it
cant access out side the class
procted -it's accesesed by the sub class of the ckass
whether that present in the sane package or diffrent but it
must be a subclass
noacces accessed with in the same package

Answer / malay tripathi
I guess if members of interface are declared final then
they can't be overridden & hence this hampers the logic
behind having interfaces...
Interface can only be Public/Default or abstract.In any
other case it can't be overridden & hence of no use.
MemberFunctions also behave similarly.
