Line 1:
Data encapsulation, also known as data hiding, is the mechanism whereby the implementation details of a class are kept hidden from the user. The user can only perform a restricted set of operations on the hidden members of the class by executing special functions commonly called ''methods''. '''Data encapsulation''' may refer to:
* The wrapping of private data in classes in object-oriented programming languages: see [[Encapsulation (object-oriented programming)]], [[information hiding]], [[separation of concerns]]
* [[OSI model]] in network protocol design
