But in this case you didn't place public data at the top.
You did exactly what is above, which is place private
members at the top. My question is, if the data is private
and it is at the top, before any access specifiers, why
would you place a private tag before it, when the access
is already private by default?
I am not singling you out. I have seen several other
people do that. Really it's not that important to me
to know why you did it. I think the important thing is
that one knows the difference.
