It’s optional and basically just a default constructor which takes all fields as it’s arguments. You don’t need to call it if you don’t want. Swift is compiled afaik but it does way more behind the scenes than I’d like Pascal to do and does behave like a scripting language in many ways (inferred types for example). That being said Pascal records should still have a default constructor since this is a pattern repeated extremely frequently.
