 - You can initialize any fields, or auto properties, in the body of the constructor.
 
-Beginning with C# 11, if you don't initialize all fields in a struct, the compiler adds code to the constructor that initializes those fields to the default value. A struct assigned to its `default` value is initialized to the 0-bit pattern. A string initialized with `new` is initialized to the 0-bit pattern, followed by executing any field initializers and a constructor.
