Default: When no access modifier is specified for a class, method, or data member – It is said to be having the default access modifier by default. The data members, class or methods which are not declared using any access modifiers i.e. having default access modifier are accessible only within the same package.
Simply put, there are four access modifiers: public, private, protected and default (no keyword). Before we begin let's note that a top-level class can use public or default access modifiers only. At the member level, we can use all four.
Access Modifiers in Java are used to define the accessibility of methods and data members. There are four main types of Access Modifiers – Default, Private, Protected, and Public.
Everything in a class is public if not specified. Everything in a module is private unless export keyword is used.
