// In the last chapter, we defined properties and methods on the class using the public keyword.
// You can also define them using the "protected" and "private" keywords.
// Both keywords prevent the properties and functions from being accessible outside the object.
// Only the object itself can use each.

// Instead, we can use the public method.

// Making an attribute or function private, gives you more control over the data in the object.
// For example, we could prevent a number being set if it starts with a 7.

// The "protected" and "private" keywords work a little differently, but we
// will learn more about "protected" when we discuss inheritance.
// However, they both prevent functions and properties from being accessed outside an object.
