I noted that I can create on object in two ways:

struct A
{ 
      int a;
      A(int i)
      {
          a=i;
      }
}

A i(1);
A i{1};

What is the difference between them and which one to use?

The second version avoids the vexing parse problem also prevents narrowing. – drescherjm Aug 28 '18 at 12:31
