C Programming Resources

[misle]

I have a program due Wednesday and my instructor speaks spanish, so I need a good resource for C programming. This program deals with structures, which I don't get quite yet. Any websites or book recommendations are welcome.

Thanks!!!

just had a test on pointer,enum and struct toda :Q!

i dont know a lot of sites that teaches c++, but this site is pretty good. Hope it helps... good luck on the assignment!

EDIT: OOPS you are talking about C Programming!... but it shouldn't vary alot...hopefully 😱

Do you have a specific question on structures or the use/need of them?

Basically I need a good overview of Structures and in class something with a dot pointer notation... (first_name.last_name.) Something like that, I'm not sure how they work and that's my problem.

GiLtY Yeah, it's C, C++ is next semester or maybe Java...

<(first_name.last_name.) Something like that>well, from the example you gave there, i think the way you use structure is pretty similar to C++.

the way we do in C++ is:

struct//this is the keyword for using struct// name//name for the struct
{
int var;
char[12];
so on....
};

name names//names is pointed to the structure name... in here, name works like a data type (ie. int,float)

names.var=12;
//this is using the pointer (names) you just declared to access to the member (stuff inside the structure), in the above statment, you just initialized that the variable var equal to the value 12. the dot (.) is use to access to any members(all the variables inside the structure)

that's the basic idea about structure

hope it helps 😉
