What is a good example to differentiate between fileprivate and private in Swift3

Question

This article has been helpful in understanding the new access specifiers in Swift 3. It also gives some examples of different usages of fileprivate

Answer 1

class Privacy {

    fileprivate(set) var pu:Int {
        get {
            return self.pr
        }
        set {
            self.pr = newValue
        }
    }
    private var pr:Int = 0
    fileprivate var fp:Int = 0


    func ex() {
        print("\(self.pu) == \(self.pr) and not \(self.fp)")
    }
}


extension Privacy {

    func ex2() {
        self.pu = 5
        self.ex()
    }

}

I like this because it is super simple for ivars.

Try changing fileprivate to private (and vice versa) and see what happens on compile...
