memory.
Class is reference type. They are stored as heap on memory.
Sturcts constructor must contain a parameter and cannot
have default constructor.
Class constructor may contain no parameter.

Class can have instance field.
Struct cannot inherit from a structure.
Class can inherit from a class.
Structs cannot declare a destructor.
structure :- In structure have a by default public.
In class have a by default private.
Structure cannot be inherited. But class can be
inherit.
There is no data hiding features comes with
structures. Classes do, private, protected and public.
A structure can't be abstract, a class can.
A structure is a value type, while a class is a
reference type.
A structure is contain only data member , but class
contain data member and member function.
In a Structure we can't initilse the value to the
variable but in class variable we assign the values.

stack on memory. where as class are reference type. They
are stored as heap on memory.
