In this tutorial we learn how to declare pointers to structures and how to access their members using pointers.

This tutorial is part of the following series:

@itsdannyftw You are correct about the '.' and '->' operators, and are valid in C and C++ both. However '::' is used to qualify various identifiers, such as class names and member variables etc. and used only in C++. Note '::' operator is only used by the compiler during the compile time and does not result in generation of any code as such, unlike '.' and '->' actually result in generation of code and the actual reference address is computed at run-time.

your videos are really helpful for me to learn the c programming. i check your website, it looks like the price is 19 dollars something to watch the full videos. if you sell 9.99, i believe much more people will be happy to pay that. even though, the price is still quite reasonable comparing your work and time. thanks.

friendly and solid explanation, thank you professor

You cant actually initialize structs in the definition, since the compiler doesnt allocate any memory until you declare a struct.

Thanks a lot. Can you explain why you didn't initialize the structure like this:

typedef struct{
variablesHere
}myStruct;
