access specifier
One of the techniques in object-oriented programming is
encapsulation. It concerns the hiding of data in a class and
making this class available only through methods. In this
way the chance of making accidental mistakes in changing
values is minimized. Java allows you to control access to
classes, methods, and fields via so-called access specifiers.

There is not a great deff between Access Specifiers &
Modifiers. we can say that both are same. if you talking

As there are two type of access specifiers its means that
there are two types of modifiers. they are .........
a) java access Specifiers(Modifiers).
b) Non access Specifiers (Modifiers).

Answer / paul williams
Access Specifier is like a super class of Access Modifier
and Non-Access Modifier, which specifies the accessibility
of a field.
Access Modifier is like a sub class of Access Specifier,
