Access modifiers define which classes can access properties, variables, methods, and other classes. If an access modifier is not specified, the
access level defaults to internal, which grants access to all classes in the same package. This may be what is intended, but it should be
specified explicitly to avoid confusion.
Available access modifiers are:
-
internal - access allowed within the same package
-
private - access allowed only within the same class
-
protected - access allowed to the class and its child classes
-
public - unfettered access by all
