default(MyStruct) vs new MyStruct() - what is the difference?

Read Original

This technical article details a key difference in C# 10 between using the `default` operator and the `new` operator with structs. It explains that while `new MyStruct()` invokes a parameterless constructor (introduced in C# 10), `default(MyStruct)` does not, resulting in fields being initialized to their default values instead of any constructor logic.
