 Information Hiding

     (procedure and function) A fundamental programming principle that states
     that functions and programs should conceal their inner workings from
     other functions and programs.  Stated simply:  a function should possess
     only the knowledge necessary for it to accomplish its task.  When one
     function calls another, the calling function should possess only the
     knowledge explicitly required to call the other function.
