Re: [Dev-C++] structs

[Maya <Esc...@ne...>]

In the first one you have declared a struct named _Human and 
instantiated it right after the declaration with name Human. In your 
program you can just say for instance: " Human.height = 1.70 " and it 
will work
Here is another example:
typedef struct _Human {
  int height;
}Human;

int main(){
std::cout << "The Human Project" << std::endl;
std::cout << "How tall are you " ;
std::cin >> Human.height;
return 0;
}

In the second example you have declared a struct named Human, but has 
not yet been instantiated.
Your code would look something like this

struct Human {
 int height;
};
int main(){
Human human; // Instantiating the Human struct
std::cout << "The Human Project" << std::endl;
std::cout << "How tall are you " ;
std::cin >> human.height; // <<==
return 0;
}
Which one is better? it depends on the program you are working on, really!

Hava a good one!
