Abstract
Structs are programmer-defined data types, very similar to classes. They have data members and function members. Although structs are similar to classes, there are a number of important differences. The most important ones are the following:
-
Classes are reference types, and structs are value types.
-
Structs are implicitly sealed, which means they cannot be derived from.
