Structures in C<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n
\n
\n

<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Structures play a crucial role in ‘C’ programming, enabling the creation of user-defined data types that combine various data elements. <\/span><\/p>\n

These data elements can belong to different data types, allowing for more complex and organized data structures.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How to create a structures?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

A structure is nothing but a record, it’s a record where we club data of different data types. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Syntax of structure<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Figure
Figure 1. Creation of structure<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u2192 Begin with the keyword ‘struct'<\/code>, a fundamental reserved term in ‘C’ programming<\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2192 Specify a meaningful ‘tag_name'<\/code> to identify the structure<\/span>. You have to give one name for your record or you have to give a name for your structure.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2192 Enclose the structure definition within curly braces ‘{}'<\/code>. Remember to conclude the definition with a semicolon ‘;'<\/code><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2192 <\/span>After that, inside the body, you can mention \u2018n\u2019  number of member elements. <\/span><\/p>\n

This is a syntax to create a structure in ‘C’.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Example of a Structure <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Structures
Figure 2. Example of a Structure<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Consider the structure CarModel<\/code>, which contains member elements like carNumber<\/code>, carPrice<\/code>, carMaxSpeed<\/code>, and carWeight<\/code>.  So, the member elements usually describe the record. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For example, in the structure CarModel<\/strong>, the member element describes the car number, car price, car maximum speed, and car rate. All of these are different data of different data types. So, by using a structure you can combine all those data of different data types in a single record.<\/span><\/p>\n

You should remember that structure definition doesn’t consume any memory. It is just a description or a record. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Variables of a structure<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How to create a variable?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

To create a variable you have to first mention the data type followed by the variable name. So, the same thing you have to use here. <\/span><\/p>\n

struct<\/span> CarModel<\/span> <\/span>CarBMW<\/span>, CarFord<\/span>, CarHonda<\/span>;<\/span><\/p>\n

The creation of structure variables is shown in Figure 3.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Structures
Figure 3. Variables of a structure<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

First, you have to mention the data type. In this case, <\/span>struct CarModel<\/b> is a data type. That’s a user-defined data type. And then you have to mention various variables. Here, we have created 3 variables: CarBMW, CarFord, and CatHonda. Memory will be consumed when you create structure variables.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For example, here you can calculate how much memory a CarBMW variable will consume.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want to calculate this, then you have to calculate the total memory consumed by the member elements of that structure.  <\/span><\/p>\n

Assume carNumber consumes 4 bytes, carPrice consumes 4 bytes, carMaxSpeed consumes 2 bytes, and carWeight consumes 4 bytes. Total 14 bytes. So, a single variable CarBMW consumes 14 bytes of memory. It’s like that.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the data type of CarBMW?<\/span><\/p>\n

The data type of the CarBMW variable is “struct CarModel”.  That’s a user-defined data type. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Structure member element initialization<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Structures
Figure 4. Structure member element initialization<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We will understand this by going through one example. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Write a program to create a carModel structure discussed and create two variables of type carModel. Initialize the variables with the below given data and then print them.<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n
