Can private variables be accessed within a Closure in PHP?

Private variables cannot be accessed directly within a closure in PHP. To access private variables within a closure, you can use the "use" keyword to pass the private variable as a parameter to the closure function. 

class MyClass {
    private $privateVar = "Hello";

    public function myFunction() {
        $closure = function() use ($privateVar) {
            echo $privateVar;
        };

        $closure();
    }
}

$obj = new MyClass();
$obj->myFunction(); // Output: Hello
