Explain what is class definition in C++ ?

A class describes the behavior and properties common to any particular type of object. It is a user-defined data type, which holds its own data members and member functions, which can be accessed and used by creating an instance of that class. Defining a class means defining a blueprint for a data type or an object. A class definition begins with the keyword class followed by the class name and the class body, which is enclosed by a pair of curly braces. A class definition must always be followed either by a semicolon or a list of declarations for it to be valid.
