Structs C++ - Reading Assignments

[sto]

1 A struct allows us to group variables of mixed data types together into a single unit

2 Variables that are part of the struct

3 With the member selection operator…… example. joe.id…… joe.age …joe.weiht…

4 Structure that contains other structure

[OlgaB]

1. Why do we need structs? - We need structs because they can group variables of mixed data types together into a single unit, which makes easier to maintain and track the coding.
2. What are members in a struct? - Members is a struct are the different variables that can be declared in a struct.
3. How do you access a member inside a struct? - You access them by using member selection operator (which is a period)
4. What is a nested struct? - A struct that contains another struct.

[RealitySchematic]

1. Why do we need structs?
   To store different data types under a single unit
2. What are members in a struct?
   The variables defined within it
3. How do you access a member inside a struct?
   structItem.member
4. What is a nested struct?
   A struct that is defined elsewhere and resides within a separate struct.

[benlive]

1. Why do we need structs?
   To create our own data type.

2. What are members in a struct?
   Members are variables that the struct contains.

3. How do you access a member inside a struct?
   With point. (Person.name)

4. What is a nested struct?
   It is a struct that contains a struct as a member.

[lextiby]

1. We need structs in order to store variables representing an object.

2. They are variable part of the struct.

3. struct.member

4. A struct that has another struct as a member.

[zelt]

1 . A struct (short for structure) allows us to group variables of mixed data types together into a single unit.

2. By convention, struct names start with a capital letter to distinguish them from variable names.

3. In order to access the individual members, we use the member selection operator (which is a period).

4. Structs can contain other structs

[sbelka1703]

1. This helps us to store different attributes under the same variable

2. They are the variables in the structs

3. Struct.member

4. A struct within a struct

[Alko89]

@zelt

By convention, struct names start with a capital letter to distinguish them from variable names.

True, but the question was about the variables that are inside a struct.

• Why do we need structs?
• What are members in a struct?
• How do you access a member inside a struct?
• What is a nested struct?

1. We need structs to store multiple variables in one place with one identifier. This makes the code reusable and easier to read and use.

2. The members in a struct are the variables inside it.

3. We can access the members in a struct individually by using the period operator and then typing the expression we want to access.

4. A nested struct is a struct inside another struct . The struct on the inside can be accessed using the period operator and its values can be accessed the same way.

[Kippie]

1. To easily pass aggregate data types to functions
2. Variables built as part of a structure are members
3. By utilizing the member selection operator (album.artist = Nas;)
4. Structures that contain structures within them

[IntrepidShape]

1. Why do we need structs?
   For more complex data types

2. What are members in a struct?
   Each variable contained in a struct

3. How do you access a member inside a struct?
   StructName.memberName = Desiredvalue

4. What is a nested struct?
   A Struct within a struct. Structs all the way down. 10 layers deep structs, structs all day. … you can have a struct within a struct that acts like a member the 2nd layer deep struct also has members.

[MarL]

1. Because it permits to aggregate data together and facilitates devs job
2. variables
3. struct.[name of the member you want to interract with]
4. A struct inside a struct.

[PoeAslan]

1. Why do we need structs?

   • A struct allows us to group variables of mixed data types together into a single unit.

2. What are members in a struct?

   • The variables that are part of a struct are called members (or fields).

3. How do you access a member inside a struct?

   • In order to access the individual members, we use the member selection operator.

4. What is a nested struct?

   • A nested struct is structure within another structure.
     One structure can be declared inside other structure as we declare structure members inside a structure.

[eo0795]

1. to group variables of mixed data together into a single unit.
2. the different variables(fields) that make up a struct.
3. via the member selection operator (.).
4. a struct inside of a struct, one struct may contain pertinent information relative to another struct.

[MightyYak]

1. Why do we need structs? it allows us to have an aggregate data type and group multiple variables together.
2. What are members in a struct? the variable that are part of a struct - also called fields.
3. How do you access a member inside a struct? use the member selection operator - which is a dot/period.
4. What is a nested struct? a struct within a struct - structception.

[MattPerry]

1. Why do we need structs?

with structs we can take many variables and put them into a group that represents the variables. this allows us to add many people with less code.

2. What are members in a struct?

members variables inside of a struct like int age; or string name;.

3. How do you access a member inside a struct?

we use the member selection operator, it is a “.”

frank.age = 13;

4. What is a nested struct?

a previously identified struct can be called in another struct.

[GahuckImGoofy]

1. To create our own variable types, structs allow us to group variables of different data types and put them together in a single unit.
2. The members in a struct are the variables.
3. You have to use the member selection operator, which is a period.
4. A nested struct is a struct within a struct.

[tanu_g]

1. Why do we need structs?
It allows us to club variables of multiple types together into a single unit.

2. What are members in a struct?
They are like normal variables defined within the struct.

3. How do you access a member inside a struct?
Using member selection operator (period).

4. What is a nested structure?
When a structure is defined as a member within another structure.

[adolfogonzalezt]

1 A struct allow us to group variables of mixed market data types together into a single unit.
2 The vatiables that are part of a struct is a member.
3 structname name{member};
4 Structs that contains another struct.

[cherryknot]

1. For aggregate data types, that groups multiple individual variables together.
2. Members are variables that are part of the struct.
3. With the member selection operator (.)
4. A struct inside of an other struct.
