To ensure that the variables and methods are used only by the necessary classes/methods.

If we are going to declare a method or a variable public, it can be accessed by everybody thereby making it vulnerable to unwanted change by other classes. If we make it private, only that class can modify it and hence data is secure.

The above is just a simple example of how useful access specifiers are in programming.

What are the 3 access specifiers used in a class declaration?

The three access specifiers used in a class declaration are public, private, and protected. Public members are accessible from anywhere in the code, while private members can only be accessed within the defining class. Protected members are accessible within the class and by derived classes, but not by other classes. These specifiers help control the visibility and accessibility of class members.


Are the private access specifiers in Java and C plus plus the same?

No.In Java, the private access modifier restricts member access to the class in which the member is declared. But in C++, private members are also accessible to friends of the class in which they are declared. The rough equivalent in Java would be package private access.Not that Java doesn't have access specifiers, it has access modifiers. When no modifier is specified, default access is implied, which is package private for classes and public for interfaces.

What are severity and course specifiers in diagnosis?

Severity and course specifiers in diagnosis provide additional details about the nature and progression of a mental health disorder. Severity specifiers indicate the intensity of symptoms—whether they are mild, moderate, or severe—helping to guide treatment decisions. Course specifiers describe the pattern of the disorder over time, such as whether it is in remission or has a chronic course. Together, these specifiers enhance the accuracy of diagnosis and inform tailored treatment strategies.
