struct

Syntax:

  struct struct-name : inheritance-list {
  public-members-list;    
  protected:
  protected-members-list;
  private:
  private-members-list;
  } object-list;

Structs are like `classes`, except that by default members of a struct are public rather than private. In C, structs can only contain data and are not permitted to have inheritance lists. For example:

   struct Date {
     int Day;
     int Month;
     int Year;
   };
