In this episode, we dive into getters and setters—language features that let you run logic whenever a property is read or written. You’ll learn how getters and setters enable encapsulation and data protection, enforce input validation, and support lazy initialization. We’ll walk through practical code examples that demonstrate each benefit, then discuss performance considerations compared to direct property access. Finally, we’ll explore alternative patterns—like public fields and standard methods—and share clear guidelines on when to embrace or avoid getters and setters based on clarity, safety, and speed. Tune in to master these techniques and write cleaner, more robust code!
