Difference b/w classes and structures

[anon10125]

Sir,

Is the only difference b/w classes and structures is that by default the members of structures are public and of classes are private.?
Can we declare members of a structure private, that is can a program written with classes also written with structures with same functionality?

thanks,

Hello Anon10125,

Difference between struct and class is same as what you wrote. However, standard practice is to use class with proper public/private etc. and use struct in a manner similar to C struct.

You can declare a member private inside struct in the same manner as you do inside class.
