## Visibility
The main difference between `class` and `struct` is the default visibility. All members of a struct are publicly
accessible by default, so no accessors are needed if that is the intended behavior. A class on the other hand is private
by default, so some sort of `public:` access is needed to give users access to things like constructors and functions.

Everything can be made private in a C++ class, even constructors.
## Default behavior
If possible, we want to rely on the default behavior of the member variables of a class. This simplifies the
construction of your class and reduces the things you need to worry about.

When someone wants to create an instance of `GridPosition`, they need to give the constructor the x and y values. You
