## Answers

### Answer by Hitesh Vohra

- Encapsulation is the concept of packaging [**data**](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/96912/what-is-a-data-cable) and functions that work on that data into a single entity, similar to a Java class. This idea is also frequently used to conceal an object's internal representation or state from the outside world. This is known as information concealment.
- **Data encapsulation** is an Object Oriented Programming paradigm that treats a collection of related attributes, methods, and other components as a single entity. The best example of Data Encapsulation is a class. It's also known as data concealing because it stops the user from seeing the implementation details. As a result, encapsulation ensures the data contained in the Object's integrity.
