In simpler terms, Encapsulation in Python means the internal representation of an object is generally hidden from the view outside the object’s definition. This helps the developer develop a user-friendly experience for the end-user, and there is protection from a security breach as the codes ...
Often that definition is misconstrued to mean that the data is somehow hidden. In Java, you can have encapsulated data that is not hidden at all. However, hiding data is not the full extent of information hiding. David Parnas first introduced the concept of information hiding around 1972. He...
A modules providing examples on how to use the three modules above in a combined way, to demonstrate the capabilities of the library to write compact code. The following examples are provided: TM generator with output to file and/or TCP socket, from packet definition to TM CADU or TM frame...
The problem with this quite loose approach to the definition of encapsulation is that here:new A(new B)); The calling code knows that A needs B, which by that definition is “broken encapsulation”. The problem is, from the other perspective:...
