What does encapsulation allow a programmer to change without worrying about affecting the client programmer?

  1. External libraries

  2. Comments in the code

  3. Compilers

  4. Internal workings of the structure

The correct answer is: Internal workings of the structure

Encapsulation allows a programmer to create a protective barrier around the internal workings of a structure, preventing changes from affecting the client programmer. This means that the client programmer can continue to use the structure without worrying about any internal modifications. Therefore, the other options are incorrect because they do not involve the internal workings of a structure and do not impact the client programmer in the same way that encapsulation does. External libraries, comments in the code, and compilers can all be changed by the programmer without any impact on the client programmer.
