I want to know how I can send my array of structure to a function.
typedef struct {
char fname[20];
char lname[20];
int cnumber[12];
} contact;
contact record[40];
int main()
{
// I have all the data in the record array as I am reading it from the
// file and want to pass the record array to the function PRINT and access it.
print();
}
How can it be send in the function and print all the values using function call?
You can send your array of structures to a function like this:
void print(contact record[], int n) {
Then print the contents in this function and send it back to main() as:
print(record, n);
Note: the length of the array, n, should be kept track of somewhere in your program, then passed to print().
size_t for the number (not the size) of the items?int instead of size_t?size_t is likely large enough to hold the number of elements in virtually any array, but int is a bit more idiomatic. More importantly, it is a little clearer.
int is a crappy idiom, size_t makes sense since that is the correct type for an array index. (I didn't vote)
