Previous Topic | Relation to Structures |
|---|---|
Variables | Structures contain multiple variable types. |
Arrays | Structures allow arrays as members, and arrays of structures. |
Functions | Structures can be passed to functions by value or reference. |
Loops | Often used to process structure arrays (for, while). |
Selection (if/switch) | To compare structure members (e.g., highest price). |
File Processing | Structures store data that can later be written to files. |
31
To group different info about one item (student, car, book).
To create arrays of objects easily.
To pass related data into functions without many parameters.
To create more complex data types before learning classes/objects.
32
Games (player stats)
Finance apps (transaction records)
University systems (student database)
Inventory systems (products)
