I am new at c , and I was wondering if it's possible to store many values in a structure ? . I wanted to store more than 1 value of x1,y1,x2,y2. And after that I want a random value x1,y1,x2,y2. Is that possible with a struct or I need to use an other tool ?
struct test
{
int x1;
int y1;
int x2;
int y2;
};
It seems you need an array.
#include <time.h> //you need this to use time(NULL)
#include <stdlib.h> //you need this for random numbers functions
#include <stdio.h> //you need this for printf
//this is called a macro, it will get replaced by value 10 everywhere in the following code
#define NUM_OF_VALUES 10
struct test
{
int x1[NUM_OF_VALUES];
int y1[NUM_OF_VALUES];
int x2[NUM_OF_VALUES];
int y2[NUM_OF_VALUES];
}
int main() {
struct test my_test = { /* learn about initializes */ };
srand(time(NULL)); //this is how you initialize random number generator to be different every time you run your code
printf("Random value from x1 %d\n", my_test.x1[rand() % NUM_OF_VALUES]);
printf("Random value from y1 %d\n", my_test.y1[rand() % NUM_OF_VALUES]);
return 0;
}
Read here about how you can manually put some values in this struct
