When should you use a class vs a struct in C++?

Question

In what scenarios is it better to use a struct vs a class in C++?

Answer 1

They are pretty much the same thing. Thanks to the magic of C++, a struct can hold functions, use inheritance, created using "new" and so on just like a class

The only functional difference is that a class begins with private access rights, while a struct begins with public. This is the maintain backwards compatibility with C.

In practice, I've always used structs as data holders and classes as objects.
