If you have worked with Java, you probably know what a getter-setter is. Java has fields and getter-setters are the methods that are used to access (getter) and modify (setter) member variables. They are an essential part of encapsulation (one of the design principles).
However, in Kotlin, we don't have any fields, but we have properties instead. A property can have a custom implementation of an accessor and a mutator. In this recipe, we will see how we can implement custom accessors and mutators.
