Encapsulation in Python 3.11.1 Version refers to the practice of maintaining an object’s internal state and behavior hidden from outer access, and instead providing a general interface for interacting with the object.
This is one of the basic concepts of object-oriented programming language (OOPs), and it allows to the promotion of code reuse, maintainability, and security.
In Python 3.11.1 Version, encapsulation is completed through the use of private and protected methods and attributes, which can only be accessed within the class or subclass they are defined in.
