It has four specifier
public
private
protected
default or say no specifier


public .these specifier archives highest level of accessibility , classes, method or fields declared as public
they can assessed any class in java program
in own or same package or in another package

private- these specifier achives lowest level of accessibility
private method and fields can be assessed with same classes to which the method or field belongs
they are not visible to subclasses and not inhireted bysub classes

protected- here methods and fields are declared as protected and can only assessed by sub classes in other packages or with in the same package of the protected members class
they can't applied to class and interfaces

default - when you don't set access specifier element it follows default accessibility level
here we can access method class field belongs to same package not the outsiders package
