• struct instance fields can be set via a parametrized constructor or individually after struct construction.

• Private members can only be initialized by the constructor.

• struct defines a sealed type that implicitly inherits from System.ValueType.

• Structs cannot inherit from any other type, but they can implement interfaces.

• Structs are copied on assignment, meaning all data is copied to the new instance and changes to one of them are not reflected by the other.

• A struct cannot be null, although it can used as a nullable type:

  Vector v1 = null; //illegal
  Vector? v2 = null; //OK
  Nullable<Vector> v3 = null // OK
  

• Structs can be instantiated with or without using the new operator.

  //Both of these are acceptable
  Vector v1 = new Vector();
  v1.X = 1;
  v1.Y = 2;
  v1.Z = 3;
  
  Vector v2;
  v2.X = 1;
  v2.Y = 2;
  v2.Z = 3;
  

  However, the new operator must be used in order to use an initializer:

  Vector v1 = new MyStruct { X=1, Y=2, Z=3 }; // OK
  Vector v2 { X=1, Y=2, Z=3 }; // illegal
  

A struct can declare everything a class can declare, with a few exceptions:

• A struct cannot declare a parameterless constructor. struct instance fields can be set via a parameterized constructor or individually after struct construction. Private members can only be initialized by the constructor.
• A struct cannot declare members as protected, since it is implicitly sealed.
• Struct fields can only be initialized if they are const or static.

With constructor:

Vector v1 = new Vector();
v1.X = 1;
v1.Y = 2;
v1.Z = 3;

Console.WriteLine("X = {0}, Y = {1}, Z = {2}",v1.X,v1.Y,v1.Z);
// Output X=1,Y=2,Z=3

Vector v1 = new Vector();
//v1.X is not assigned
v1.Y = 2;
v1.Z = 3;

Console.WriteLine("X = {0}, Y = {1}, Z = {2}",v1.X,v1.Y,v1.Z);
// Output X=0,Y=2,Z=3

Point point1 = new Point();
point1.x = 0.5;
point1.y = 0.6;

Point point2 = new Point(0.5, 0.6);

Without constructor:

Vector v1;
v1.Y = 2;
v1.Z = 3;

Console.WriteLine("X = {0}, Y = {1}, Z = {2}",v1.X,v1.Y,v1.Z);
//Output ERROR "Use of possibly unassigned field 'X'

Vector v1;
v1.X = 1;
v1.Y = 2;
v1.Z = 3;

Console.WriteLine("X = {0}, Y = {1}, Z = {2}",v1.X,v1.Y,v1.Z);
// Output X=1,Y=2,Z=3

Point point3;
point3.x = 0.5;
point3.y = 0.6;

If we use a struct with its constructor, we aren't going to have problems with unassigned field (each unassigned field has null value).

Unlike classes, a struct doesn't have to be constructed, i.e. there is no need to use the new keyword, unless you need to call one of the constructors. A struct does not require the new keyword because is a value-type and thus cannot be null.

public interface IShape
{
    decimal Area();
}

public struct Rectangle : IShape
{
    public decimal Length { get; set; }
    public decimal Width { get; set; }

    public decimal Area()
    {
        return Length * Width;
    }
}

Sinse structs are value types all the data is copied on assignment, and any modification to the new copy does not change the data for the original copy. The code snippet below shows that p1 is copied to p2 and changes made on p1 does not affect p2 instance.

var p1 = new Point {
    x = 1,
    y = 2
};

Console.WriteLine($"{p1.x} {p1.y}"); // 1 2

var p2 = p1;
Console.WriteLine($"{p2.x} {p2.y}"); // Same output: 1 2

p1.x = 3;
Console.WriteLine($"{p1.x} {p1.y}"); // 3 2
Console.WriteLine($"{p2.x} {p2.y}"); // p2 remain the same: 1 2
