struct initialization code example

Example 1: how to initialize an struct object in c++

// exemple avec la structure Coordonnees :
struct Coordonnees
{
  int x;
  int y;
}

int main()
{
  Coordonnees coords = {1,2};
}

Example 2: c++ initialize a struct

struct address {
    int street_no;
    char *street_name;
    char *city;
    char *prov;
    char *postal_code;
};

address temp_address = {
  0,  // street_no
  nullptr,  // street_name
  "Hamilton",  // city
  "Ontario",  // prov
  nullptr,  // postal_code
};

Example 3: how to initialize a struct in c

typedef struct MY_TYPE {
  bool flag;
  short int value;
  double stuff;
} MY_TYPE;

void function(void) {
  MY_TYPE a;
  ...
  a = { true, 15, 0.123 }
}

Example 4: structs in c

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

struct book{ //this is like making a datatype of type book
    //these are the fields
  	char name[50];
    char author[50];
    char ISBN[11];
};

int main(){
    struct book book1; //making an instance of book called book1
    /*
    normally to store integers in a struct we can do something like
    book1.number_of_pages = 22; which is correct
    however with character arrays we need to use the strcpy
    function
    */

    strcpy(book1.name, "james and the giant tatti");
    strcpy(book1.author, "Krishan Grewal");
    strcpy(book1.ISBN, "12345678987");

    printf("book name: %s\n", book1.name);
  	printf("book author: %s\n", book1.author);
  	printf("book ISBN: %s\n", book1.ISBN);

return 0;
}

Example 5: instance for c in struct

typedef struct listitem listitem;
