Line 19:

Below is an example in [[C Sharp (programming language)|C#]] that shows how access to a data field can be protected through the use of a <code>private</code> keyword:

<source lang="csharp">

namespace Encapsulation
{

class Program {

{
public class Account {

{

private decimal accountBalance = 500.00m;

public decimal CheckBalance() {

{

return accountBalance;

}

}

static void Main() {

{

Account myAccount = new Account();

decimal myBalance = myAccount.CheckBalance();

Line 36 ⟶ 41:

* "CheckBalance" method provided by the "Account" class

* but it cannot manipulate the value of "accountBalance" */

}

}

}
