    Private int is related to the scope of the variable. Private means the variable is only accessible from within the class, alternatives are public and protected.
    Final means that once the variable is assigned the value cannot be changed. This can help the compiler as it can make certain assumptions of the value. This has nothing to do with where the value can be accessed from.

    They are used for different things. Private is related to the scope of the variable. Private means the variable is only accessible from within the class, alternatives are public and protected.
    Final means that once the variable is assigned the value cannot be changed. This can help the compiler as it can make certain assumptions of the value. This has nothing to do with where the value can be accessed from.
