Properties and its Restrictions

A property consists of a name along with get and set accessors.
The accessors are used to get and set the value of a variable.

The general form of a property is shown here:




    
type  propertyName  {
                get  {
                        //  get  accessor  code
                }
                
                set  {
                        //  set  accessor  code
                }
        }
    
   
  
   


A property cannot be passed as a ref or out parameter to a method.
You cannot overload a property.
A property should not alter the state of the underlying variable when the get accessor is called.
