title: What makes EXE's grow in size?
body: <p>My executable was 364KB in size. It did not use a Vector2D class so I implemented one with overloaded operators.</p>
  
  <p>I changed most of my code from</p>
  
  <pre><code>point.x = point2.x;
  point.y = point2.y;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>to </p>
  
  <pre><code>point = point2;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This resulted in removing nearly 1/3 of my lines of code and yet my exe is still 364KB. What exactly causes it to grow in size?</p>
