[subramanian]

What is the difference between a struct and a class ?

When should a struct be used and when should a class be used ?

The only difference is the name itself and the default access.
Some will suggest using struct for PODs (Palin Old Data).
Otherwise they are exactly the same.

FWIW this and many other things are covered in the associated faq:

as already few friends told access difference in struct and class but i
suggests you to write code related to struct in .c file and related to
class in .cpp file, after that one by one apply all concept of Object
Oriented Concept on both files then you will find crystal difference
between struct and class.

i hope it will helps you.

Bingo asim!
Rest all differences mentioned are meant between "c++" struct and
class. But mind you, c and c++ structures are a lot different (see to
it like struct in c is given all OO power of class in c++)
