Definitions from the Web

Getters

Description:

Getters refer to methods or functions in programming languages that are used to retrieve the value of a variable or data member. They allow indirect access to encapsulated properties and provide a way to read the values they hold. Getters are commonly used in object-oriented programming to enforce data encapsulation and control access to object properties.

Examples:

1. Noun (Programming):

In object-oriented programming, getters are used to access private variables. For example:

public int getCount() { return count; }

Here, the getter method getCount() retrieves the value of the private variable count.

2. Noun (Slang):

In slang, "getters" can refer to any substance or activity that gives someone a desired effect or feeling. For example:

After a long day at work, a cup of coffee is my go-to getter.

3. Verb (Informal):

"Getters" can also be used as a verb to describe the act of acquiring or obtaining something. For example:

He always getters the latest gadgets as soon as they are released.
