"We can also create <code>private properties</code> and <code>private methods</code>, which aren't accessible from outside the object.",
"To do this, we create the variable inside the <code>constructor</code> using the <code>var</code> keyword we're familiar with, instead of creating it as a <code>property</code> of <code>this</code>.",
"This is useful for when we need to store information about an object but we want to control how it is used by outside code.",
"For example, what if we want to store the <code>speed</code> our car is traveling at but we only want outside code to be able to modify it by accelerating or decelerating, so the speed changes in a controlled way?",
"In the editor you can see an example of a <code>Car</code> <code>constructor</code> that implements this pattern.",
- "Now try it yourself! Modify the <code>Bike</code> <code>constructor</code> to have a <code>private property</code> called <code>gear</code> and two <code>public methods</code> called <code>getGear</code> and <code>setGear</code> to get and set that value."
