Hi Rajdeep! A friend function is an option (loophole) that allows access to private and protected members of a class. Say you needed to access private or protected members from 2 different classes...

Hello ATK,what you said is absolutely correct but that also means I secured my members and yet again accessed those private or protected members,this is why I find it very confusing.
