Difference in definition for class level default access in OCA study guide(Sybex) and Java docs

[Maxitoxin Mayank]

Could you please let me know if my understanding is wrong here regarding the below 2 statements from the respective sources. The statements deal with default access specifier at class level.According to me they are not saying the same things.

Source 1 : OCA Oracle Certified associcate Java SE 8 Progammer 1 Study Guide  (Jeanne Boyarsky and Scott Selikoff) : Chapter 5 , Pg : 237

The default package private modifier , which is the lack of  any access modifier, indicates the class can be accessed only by a subclass or class within the same package.

Source 2 : Java docs ( https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/javaOO/accesscontrol.html )

If a class has no modifier (the default, also known as package-private), it is visible only within its own package

Am I comparing not equivalent things here ? If not, could you please explain how they are same.

After posing the question, i stumbled upon an already existing post on the same issue. So i suppose it is now answered.

The post is here for your reference.

Looks like you understood the point, so in that way it's answered by the thread you linked to. Thanks for searching, finding, and posting the link.

However, a warning about that thread: the answer comes pretty early on and then the thread drags on with a lot of pretty pointless arguing about unrelated issues. So you don't need to read the whole thing!

Have a cow for finding the answer to your own question!
