I don't see why you need the struct type "p".  Confusion between it and
pclass is the root of your problem.  Changing your operator+ function to
 
pclass  operator+ (pclass a, pclass b)
{
        return pclass (a.pnt.X+b.pnt.X, a.pnt.Y+b.pnt.Y,
a.pnt.Z+b.pnt.Z);
}
 
will fix the immediate problem, and make the program execute correctly.
