Defining c'tor protected or private means no body can instantiate it
except the class derived from it.
public c'tor class can be instantiated from any where in your code

Defining c'tor protected or private means no body can instantiate it
except the class derived from it.
Or static members of the class, or friends of the class.

Public declaration of ctor allows all fuctions to acces it.If declared
private or protected it is accessible only from the class itself or
inherited classes respectively.
Private or protected calss constructors are rarely used.
one example is the implementation of singleton design patterns.
