When should I use structs instead of classes in programming?

Can you explain when to use structs instead of classes?

Structs are typically used for small data structures that hold related data, while classes are used for more complex objects with behavior.

What are the main differences in memory allocation between structs and classes?

Structs are value types and are allocated on the stack, while classes are reference types and are allocated on the heap.

Are there any performance implications when choosing between them?

Yes, structs can be more efficient for small data types due to stack allocation, but classes offer more flexibility with inheritance.

Can you give an example of when to use a struct?

Sure! Use a struct for a simple data structure like a point in 2D space, which only holds x and y coordinates.
