But, even though C isn't object-oriented and doesn't have a private keyword, you can still limit data type visibility using opaque types, in the same way that LibC does with FILE pointers. This video shows you how. Related Videos: Queue Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyX30WVuEos IFDEF guards: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeOTr0u7ALk *** Welcome!
