Wait, what's the difference between a sea and an ocean?

Well thats an annoying and pointless comparison. Lets compare a sea with an ocean while we're at it, thats just as frustratingly niggly and irrelevant.

If you look at the ASM generated, a struct and a class in C++ is the same thing from a machines point of view.


The comparison was meant to show that structures, and objects are so closely related. That determining a difference is impossible. The only way to distinguish is the declaration, and usage. not very 'niggly' now is it.  8)

P.S. aren't sea and ocean the same thing? Except that most (comparably) smaller bodies of water are seas.

A sea is enclosed by land or something, I think.

Anyways thats my point - who cares? Structures in C++ aren't truly structures, they were just put there so C code is compatible with C++. The difference between a structure and an object is the difference between procedural programming and OOP, blur that line at your own risk.

Yeah, it's a lot of fun. First time I ever played Halo I did it a lot.
