Java Tutorial #8: Getters and Setters Explained

[@LNasterio]

3:05 THANK GOD finally someone explained this in few seconds instead of paragraphs

[@dapro3495]

yep right i always wondering what "this" actually means

[@jonker5096]

I just wanted to agree with everyone here; this is way better than anything my school has showed me for this subject. I no longer have any confusion or questions and I understand why you would want to use this method (I initially thought my school was just making things harder for no reason). Thank you :)

[@ezramukisa376]

Wow, imagine. I'm at uni but it has never been as easy to understand as this 8 minute video. This deserves a million subscribers 🙌

[@zukiezuke]

I spent a while searching and this is the best AND most straightforward explanation out there I could see. Thank you so much, I feel like I actually get it when at this point I was willing to settle for someone just telling me what to do.

[@MehranHosseini-po9eg]

what a really good point you mention that freed my mind and it was Setter should be before Getters, cause it makes more scenes in this form. Btw I'm aware it's not really that important to cause a problem if in reverse but for learning purpose it's better in this way

[@rudiminnaar3700]

Perfect video for learning or doing quick revision. Thanks Chandler!

[@omarkurdi9381]

I literally can't thank you enough i watched all the you tube vids about learning java setters and getters and yours is the best one i understood the use of them finally thanks alot

[@minyoi6843]

Thanks a million. Most video go back and forth I couldn't really understand. This is the first time I've understood getters and setters.

[@MrChester197]

I just found your channel by searching this topic. You have explained this so much better than anyone else, including my professor. I also learned about the generate feature on IntelliJ and my mind is blown. thank you SO MUCH.

[@habibazarsina5857]

Thanks, Chandler. You are a great teacher/tutor. After watching your video I have a better understanding of setters and getters in Java.

[@jameskerester2000]

At 3:06 isn't the instance variable the one on the left? So if you weren't using this.name = name it would be name = Name right?

[@abdelwadoud1040]

you are right

[@maurosgarage]

Thank you!!!!! I wrote 157 lines of code to do what you did in 10 line of code #overthinking

[@anidh1503]

Simple and well explained, thanks for the vid

[@taylorsmith5461]

Such a well done video! I'm thankful that you did the getters and setters the way you did because I finally understand them better. Everything is well explained. Keep up the great work!

[@SuperDaxos]

I'm in school and yesterday my teacher was explaining a course that also contained getters and setters, and I didn't understand sh*t. In these 8 minutes of your video, I'm like: holy cow, this is actually really easy. I just needed someone to explain it well and take it slow

[@markellis130]

Great video! This was much easier to understand than my textbook.

[@tharakhgormaniad9820]

THANK U SO MUCH!!! THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED A SIMPLE AND CLEAR EXPLANATION U SAVED MY LIFE

[@brandontaylor8372]

You described this way better than my professor. Thank you!

[@omarkurdi9381]

dude same i didn't understand a word from my professor

[@anedz4005]

thanks, my teacher wasnt able to explain it to me but you did a great a job and now I understand it thanks a lot!

[@adrianlowery7175]

THANK YOU for explaining the concept so simply. That is what makes a great teacher. And thank you for showing shortcuts! I had no idea that IntelliJ would generate getters and setters.

[@sheed419]

WOW!!! I was having problems with getters and setters until I came across this video... thanks girl!!!!

[@DeepakSingh-n2g]

What’s the point of having private variable but both getter and setter be public?

[@K4113B4113]

You actually explained stuff as you did it. Amazing. My teacher can’t even do that. Subscribed.

[@1sunflower2005]

@3:03 Name = name??? should it be name = Name?

[@TurdFurgeson275]

Couldn’t have hurt you to watch 5 seconds more.

[@user-uq1fq6gs3i]

@@TurdFurgeson275 No he is actually correct

[@SwinkMediaHouse]

Love the if-else outro... subbed!

[@trymstmo5158]

Thank god, finally someone thats actullay are good at this. Thanks!

[@hudsonsmith3]

I’m in ap csa, and for too long I have not understood this at all. Thank you so much!

[@milankbudha]

good video..u were the 1st person to show the video in intellij ide....everyone does in eclipse

[@bismahnawaz852]

Hi at 5:00 you said that you could test it on the person class, how would you do that?

[@ditavoncheese1680]

I didn't find the music distracting at all, it was quiet and peaceful. I was still able to focus on the tutorial.

[@fkjgbrbr]

3:05 may have them backwards. You would be changing the value of the parameter rather than the instance variable.

[@crazyx3s]

I think she meant that the parameter is set to the instance variable. It was just bad wording.

[@bernardasigbe5847]

Yea. I was scrolling through the comments section to see if someone noticed that. Thanks @WeHungry. But in all, it's great explanation. Way to go Chandler!

[@ahmedifhaam7266]

yea its Kinda backwards. She explained how to use "this" keyword correctly, but after removing "this", she renamed the wrong variable.

[@brijkumar8207]

Hello great explanation. Do you have Java class?

[@olzhaskrm2628]

Hi CodingWithChandler, at 3:01 you said if we change name to Name it will be Name = name, however, if I understand correctly left side where is this.name related to private String name, and right side is what coming from method's parameter /argument. Please correct me if I'm wrong,

[@afennelly99]

Why are there no setters and getters in the class for FavColor?

[@Michelle-qw9qq]

This is amazing! Thank you for breaking it all down I was definitely making things harder for myself lol.

[@magoyama]

that's a pity that the left border of the screen is slightly hidden, but your explanation is great, thank you!

[@ZiadSpell]

Perfect explanation ✔️

[@ADtranzakias]

Very simple and understandable. Thank you very much Chandler, see you in friends.

[@DMV_Helal]

Thanks so clear to understand :)

[@lestercarcamo4070]

Excellent. This is very good.

[@melanie55555]

LIFESAVER. THANK YOU!!!

[@oki9Sedo1]

Thank you for this! Very clear.

[@merial8166]

Very accurate and detailed explanation! Thank you!

[@ramonsufranterecia7075]

You are amazing, you just make it look so easy 🎉 thanks 🎉😅

[@KY22077]

Thank you for such a good explanation. Please make videos about Design Patterns.

[@lishebolishebo2801]

Well explained. Thank you.

[@chaseblodgett5745]

Thank you!! Very well explained

[@soulaimanov]

What a beautiful explanation thank you for making things easy 🙏

[@hewhomustnotbenamed3662]

Thank you so much! So understandable and clear!

[@mrg3921]

Thanks a lot! Keep up the good work!

[@RinorBislimi]

One of the best explained video :Y

[@anodosarcade7355]

3:26 so that variable is now that name for that variable to anything that references it, or just a instance of an object?

[@edwamk]

Amazing Demo

[@angelryux]

I finally get it now lol but I still not sure why we wouldn't just change the variables to whatever we want it to be instead of writing all that. Like just declare and assign them like: String Name = "Bob"; String Color = "Blue" ; int age = 16; And just call 'em?

[@crazyx3s]

I recommend you to watch 2 -3 videos on each topic you go over that way you can understand it in different angles This video explains it nicely: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXeWp3WPjM6ej9U imagine you have thousands of methods and you need to change a value of a variable many months later but you forget the rules or conditions of a certain variable thats why through the setter you can change a value, with the condition, and through the getter you simply just return the value.

[@kavin1814]

What if you wanna assign/change values & print the values of these variables from different class? Imagine that Scenario.

[@ahmedifhaam7266]

At around 3:17 I don't think your example of using 'this' keyword in java was entirely correct. Thought I'd point that out. Thanks

[@mackymichel8052]

Thank for this lesson, but what if I wanted to include constructors( both of them), how would I define them?

[@hossamqandel5303]

Thank u Chandler ❤️🦅

[@nitish2808]

How do I access a protected getter setter in another package in Java?

[@petevegas3274]

Great video and explanation!

[@belgianheskey]

So this is so the file(class) can access the variables from the other file?

[@bobert471]

So it's pretty much like creating helper functions similar to JavaScript and Node.js if I were building an API and had to get and set data. Really just helper functions right?

[@Ozay1998]

wow i finally understood it. thank you

[@ThaThree]

Hi Chandler, everything works wonderfully except for the fact that I cannot input Bob's variables like you have, instead I have to put it in the brackets of "new Person(Insert variables here)". IntelliJ won't let me have it your way, why is that? I can see you're using the same IDE

[@czciborczyz6192]

Simple and Effective expleind , Thanks ;)

[@betheBetterChoice]

thanks well explained and nice voice too!!

[@aferezek7781]

so what is the difference between constructor and setters

[@anodosarcade7355]

I had trouble understanding what exactly TAKES IN variables in a paremeter, from inside the method or from the declared variables above. or from the other class that is using the getters and setters. I think im getting it now....

[@jeremiedimarciello502]

Does that info stay in the object? I could save the object close program..re open then getname and it still be bob?

[@Matt-qr8yu]

you are a savior

[@srinivasseenu1893]

can this be done in a single code

[@SAM-ol5ip]

I hate how in uni they make this so hard while in reality it's not! thanks A LOT

[@bluesp6267]

Thank u. Really helpful

[@sherylen.2169]

thankyou so much!😚

[@alldayjose]

this was a bit helpful. thanks

[@ayushlohariwal9904]

I'm from India. Thank for making these videos. You helped me a lot. Love the way you describe coding. 😎 please make more videos on spring or hibernate.

[@yasirzafar8075]

Youre a life saver!

[@aquate9637]

I don't get it, why not just make separate variables and then define them instead of just using setters and getters?

[@davidhamilton9871]

awesome thank you

[@kay6730]

did not see properties, only fields why ?

[@4max0]

Thank you so much. :)

[@dronef0415]

This is basically string concatenation but with extra steps

[@JP-programming]

Good job

[@kidsin9]

Great thanks

[@FireRust]

i cant focus with the music... either talk louder or turn the music down please! :(

[@cmh1198]

name of the song please?!

[@fayoztoshmirzaev7895]

Be honest who is BOB?! but actually thank you for the video

[@xxmarksmanriflegodxx2071]

3:03 this is not correct my guy, its has to be opposite if your paramter is Name and instance variable is name you would have to write name=Name;

[@DhiaaAl-amdy]

provocative AF

[@anodosarcade7355]

"intelliga can do that for you" interesting interesting....tell me more

[@Jaylink15]

IntelliJ

[@pasindurangana643]

cramming for a quiz wish me luck

[@mukwevho01]

i love that you are a female. finally. I've been getting only male tutors and its nice to get some feminine energy

[@busarapumanikrishna4969]

Ur voice tone is quite different

[@Morphues]

thank u

[@mariomartinez2939]

Couldn't subscribe because the code you wrote asking to subscribe failed to compile. #braces

[@seemarani-sk3et]

liked what you wrote at 8.21 but you forgot to close the else bracket , and hence lame one's will get error #lostYourSubscribers , lol

[@kashif2309]

Thank you! no offense but why would someone put a piece of distracting music in an educational video.
