Answer / rsn
Hello Shivani,
I think both struct and class in C++ are quite the same
except for the fact that, members in struct are public by
default whereas they are private for class.
Moreover struct also supports inheritance,polymorphism
etc...etc...

Answer / ramesh kasi
The only difference is related to the default access
specifier.
The members of a structure have public access by default.
The members of a calss have private access by default.

Answer / ajit
In structures by default the member variables considered as
public where as in classes by default data members are
considered as private.
Structures doesn't provide the concept data encapsulation
but classes provides it.

Answer / shivani
In Class Members are private by default.
In Structure Member are public by default.
structures are value typed where as classes are refernce
typed
Class can be inherited But Structure can't be inherited
In structures we cannot initilase the variable during the
declaration while in classes we can.
Structure s does not support polymorphism while class does
Structure can be declared without a tag at the first time,
but not in case of class.
e.g. struct { variables; }(struct variable list); [It would
not raise any error while comlitation]
class { access specifier: variable list; access specifier:
vari....
}; [it will cause an error while compilation]
