#skind[Classes and methods implemented in the program]

- The `OuterClass` class:
  - Private field `int outerMember`: Represents a member variable in the outer class.
  - The `InnerClass` class:
    - Private field `int innerMember`: Represents a member variable in the inner class.
    - Method `void accessMembers()`: Prints the values of both outer and inner members.
  - Method `void accessInnerMembers()`: Creates an instance of the inner class and prints the value of the inner member through the object.

- The `InnerClassExample` class contains the main program:
  - `public static void main(String[])`: Demonstrates the usage of outer and inner classes by creating instances and accessing their members.

/ Note : The file name of the (bytecode) compiled class file corresponding to the inner class is ```text OuterClass$InnerClass.class```.
