"Class Template" or "Template Class"?
In C++, structs, classes, and unions are collectively called
class types. Without additional qualification,
the word "class" in plain text type is meant to include class types introduced
with either the keyword class or the keyword struct. Note
specifically that "class type" includes unions, but "class" does not. (In C++, the only
difference between class and struct is that the default access
for class is private whereas the default access for
struct is public. However, we prefer to use class for
types that use new C++ features, and we use struct for ordinary C data
structure that can be used as "plain old data" (POD).)
There is some confusion about how a class that is a template is
called:
The difference between the second and third meaning is somewhat
subtle and unimportant for the remainder of the text.
Because of this imprecision, we avoid the term template class in our tutorials. Similarly, we use function
template and member function template, but
avoid template function and template member function.
