Does val property has a setter or not ?
And is it equivalent to var property having private setter?
E.g. 'val a = 2' is same as
'var a = 2
private set'

By definition val properties don't have a setter. It's not equivalent to private set on a var, because even inside the class declaring the val you wouldn't be able to set it (unlike a private set)
