Struct

Overview - Struct is value type, so if you create new struct it's value is already assigned by default - Struct is almost same as class type, it supports access modifiers, constructors, indexers, fields, nested types , operatores and properties. - Struct Don't support Inheritance like class

Sample Code

using System;
namespace CsharpStruct {

  // defining struct
  struct Employee {
    public int id;

    public void getId(int id) {
      Console.WriteLine("Employee Id: " + id);
    }
  }

  class Program {
    static void Main(string[] args) {

      // declare emp of struct Employee
      Employee emp;

      // accesses and sets struct field
      emp.id = 1;

      // accesses struct methods
      emp.getId(emp.id);

      Console.ReadLine();
    }
  }
}

- We can also instantiate a struct using the new keyword

Difference between structs and classes

structs	classes
structs are value type	classes are reference type
structs are stored in stack or a inline	classes are stored on managed heap
structs doesn't support inheritance	classes support inheritance
But handing of constructor is different in structs. The complier supplies a default no-parameter constructor, which your are not permitted to replace	Constructors are fully supported in classes
