Mastering Programming Using C & C++ – Encapsulation

🔥 In Part 19 of the Mastering Programming Using C & C++ series, we dive deep into encapsulation — the core OOP principle that helps you protect and organize your data. Learn how to restrict direct access to class members and expose functionality safely through methods.

✅ What you’ll learn in this video:
✔️ Understanding the concept and benefits of encapsulation
✔️ Using access specifiers: private, protected, and public
✔️ Implementing getter and setter functions to control data access
✔️ How encapsulation improves code maintainability and security
✔️ Practical examples of encapsulated classes in C++
✔️ Best practices for designing well-encapsulated classes

💡 Why This Matters:
🔹 Encapsulation safeguards data integrity and hides implementation details
🔹 Enables modular and maintainable code architecture
🔹 Essential foundation for advanced OOP concepts like inheritance and polymorphism
🔹 Promotes clear interfaces between different parts of your program
