Access Modifiers (C# Programming Guide)
In this articleAll types and type members have an accessibility level. The accessibility level controls whether they can be used from other code in your assembly or other assemblies. An assembly is a .dll or .exe created by compiling one or more .cs files in a single compilation. Use the following access modifiers to specify the accessibility of a type or member when you declare it:
Summary table
The following examples demonstrate how to specify access modifiers on a type and member:
Not all access modifiers are valid for all types or members in all contexts. In some cases, the accessibility of a type member is constrained by the accessibility of its containing type. Class, record, and struct accessibilityClasses, records, and structs declared directly within a namespace (in other words,
that aren't nested within other classes or structs) can be either Struct members, including nested classes and structs, can be declared Derived classes and derived records can't have greater accessibility than their base types. You can't declare a public class You can enable specific other assemblies to access your internal types by using the Class, record, and struct member accessibilityClass and record members (including nested classes, records and structs) can be declared with any of the six types of access. Struct members can't be declared as Normally, the accessibility of a member isn't greater than the accessibility of the type that contains it. However, a The type of any member field, property, or event must be at least as accessible as the member itself. Similarly, the return type and the parameter types
of any method, indexer, or delegate must be at least as accessible as the member itself. For example, you can't have a User-defined operators must always be declared as Finalizers can't have accessibility modifiers. To set the access level for a

FeedbackSubmit and view feedback for Which access specifier can be used to access classes only inside the package?Private: The private access modifier is specified using the keyword private. The methods or data members declared as private are accessible only within the class in which they are declared. Any other class of the same package will not be able to access these members.
What access types of variables can be accessed from a class in same package?Variables, methods, and constructors, which are declared protected in a superclass can be accessed only by the subclasses in other package or any class within the package of the protected members' class.
What type of access modifier is accessible only within the class?1) Private
The private access modifier is accessible only within the class. In this example, we have created two classes A and Simple. A class contains private data member and private method.
Which access modifier is accessible within package and outside the package but through inheritance only?Protected: We can access the protected modifier within the same package and also from outside the package with the help of the child class. If we do not make the child class, we cannot access it from outside the package. So inheritance is a must for accessing it from outside the package.
