All the programming languages in the C family provide a way to encapsulate data and operations through the simple struct or the more complex class. D includes support for both classes and structs, but the rules that govern their usage may not be what you are used to from other C languages. For example, D structs are similar to those found in C++ in that they may have methods, but unlike C++ structs, they may not be extended through inheritance.
