To copy any struct variable the right side variable must be initialized or populated.

But here the fields of struct have no any initialized value so, all the element of a copied to b but if there is the value of fields then the value are not initialized.

Since Structure is a value type, All the elements of 'a' will be copied to 'b'.

Consider Below Example,

int i=10; //value type variable.
int j; // value type variable.

Now, j=i; //j contains the value 10,as the value of i is copied to j.
