Pointer to structure
The use of structure
define the different data type as a bunch of code.The pointer to structure and
array of structure to create structure dynamically at run time.
Declaring structure and
structure to ppointer and accessing its member variable is as follow:
Ex,
struct data
{
int num;
char name[20];
float salary;
};
struct data d,*p;
p=&d;
// accessing member
p->num=10;
strcpy(p->name,”Om ”);
p->salary=5000;
The symbol-> is
called arraow operator (member selection operator) is used to access the member
of structure when accessed by pointer.
Ex,
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
struct emp
{
int no;
char name[15];
long int salary;
};
void main()
{ //initialization
struct emp *e;
clrscr();
printf("\n enter no
: ");
scanf("%d",&e->no);
fflush(stdin);
printf("\n Enter name
: ");
gets(e->name);
printf("\n Enter salary : ");
scanf("%ld",&e->salary);
printf("\n No Name Salary");
printf("\n %d
%s
%ld",e->no,e->name,e->salary);
getch();
}
