7 interview pointers on Java access control

* The scope of an automatic variable is method scope and the member variable life is class level.     * Protected features are available to class, subclass, within a package and only for subclasses in a different package.     * If you don't specify an access modifier, then compiler assigns default access modifier, which is not a keyword.     * A 'final' variable must be initialized at the point of declaration.     * If define a class as final then the class cannot be extended (avoiding the inheritance).     * An abstract classes cannot be instantiated. If you define one method as abstract in a class the class must be defined as abstract.     * If you define one non default constructor in any given class, then the default constructor will not be provided by the compiler.
