This article has been helpful in understanding the new access specifiers in Swift 3. It also gives some examples of different usages of fileprivate
In the following example, language constructs modified by private and fileprivate seem to behave identically:
fileprivate func fact(_ n: Int) -> Int {
if (n == 0) {
return 1
} else {
return n * fact(n - 1)
}
}
private func gauss(_ n: Int) -> Int {
if (n == 0) {
return 0
} else {
return n + gauss(n - 1)
}
}
print(fact(0))
print(fact(5))
print(fact(3))
print(gauss(10))
print(gauss(9))
This is according to intuition, I guess. But, is there any exception?
Kindest regards.
