Structure Arrays in C Programming

Array of Structures

• Say we have some 100 employees we cannot create 100 structures. For this we have arrays to be used.
• The array of structures are defined just like we define an array of variables.
• The array of structures are defined and the operations on them are performed like the usual array of other data types.

Syntax:
data-type array-name[size of array];

Take the example of students and its size is 100 it will be defined in the following manner:
struct student stud_list [100];

Accessing the elements of this array is done by the index of array like n[0], n[1] etc. but the elements of this array are the structures and each member of the structure is accessed by the '.' operator.

Syntax: To access the elements
array-name[index].member-name;

Example: Access the fees of the 4th student
student[3].fees;
