C Sharp (C#) - Properties and Encapsulation

Identify the error in this code snippet:

class Car {
  public int speed;
  public int Speed {
    get { return speed; }
    set { speed = value; }
  }
}

var c = new Car();
c.Speed = 50;
Console.WriteLine(c.speed);

AAccessing field directly breaks encapsulation.

BField and property have the same name causing conflict.

CNo error; code works fine.

DProperty must be static to access field.

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Check field and property names
The field is speed and property is Speed, so no naming conflict.
Step 2: Analyze direct field access
Accessing c.speed directly bypasses the property, which can break encapsulation and safety.
Final Answer:
Accessing field directly breaks encapsulation. -> Option A
Quick Check:
Use properties to protect data, not direct field access [OK]

Quick Trick: Avoid direct field access; use properties for safety. [OK]

Common Mistakes:

MISTAKES

Thinking same names cause error (case-sensitive).
Believing direct field access is always safe.
Assuming property must be static.
