What is the default “access level” for access specifiers in Java?

Question

This is a question for the Java 2 Standard Edition.

Answer 1

yeah, the only difference between the default and public specifier is that default can only be accessed in the same package whereas public can be accessed in other packages too.

Answer 2

If you don't specify that a member or method is public, protected, or private, that member or method is public to the package. The method or member can only be accessed by other classes in the same package.
