Frequently asked questions

  1. What is wrong with this class declaration?
       private class someClass{
             // class implementation goes here
       }

    There are no private classes. Classes can be public or default. Public classes are public; default classes are private within their own package.

  2. What is encapsulation?

    Encapsulation is how we contain our variables, code, and methods in a manner that exposes just the parts and functionality we want to other code.
