Program Plan Intro

Structure pointer operator (->):

The structure pointer operator is used to access members of a structure using pointer variable; it is used to dereference a pointer variable instead of indirection operator (*).

Indirection operator:

An asterisk “*” is also referred as indirection operator which is used to dereferences the pointer.

  • If the “*” operator is placed before a variable then the variable is referred as pointer variable.

Dot operator:

The dot “.” operator is used to access the members of a structure; the dot operator has a higher precedence than the indirection operator.

Note:

Brackets are having highest precedence when comparing with any other operator; so, when any operator with any precedence is placed inside the brackets, then the operator will be executed first.

Assume the following structure declaration exists in c++. struct Rectangle{int length;int width;}; Now Assume rptr is a pointer to a Rectangle structure. Which of the expressions, A, B, or C, is equivalent to the following expression: rptr->widtha) *rptr.widthb) (*rptr).widthc) rptr.(*width)  ( Drop screenshot of output as well )
Create a structure called Shape which has two components, length and width. Create a structure variable Rectangle and take its length and width as input from the user. Implement the two functionsint findArea(struct Shape R) and int findPerimeter(struct Shape R). From the main function, call these two functions to get the area and perimeter of the rectangle.struct Shape{double length;double width;};
An array of structure variables is declared using the statement Dim inventory(4) As Product. Write a Visual Basic statement that assigns the number 100 to the intQuantity member contained in the last array element.
