Program Plan Intro

Structure:

  • In C#, the group of several variables is known as a structure where a structure is a user defined data type.
  • struct keyword is used to create a structure.
  • Syntax:

  struct structName

  {

  }

  • Structure declaration does not consume any memory; it just tells the compiler what the structure is made of.
  • Structures may contain fields, where those fields contain variables or/and methods.
  • It is necessary that the fields should have public access specifier in order to be accessible.
  • Before bringing the structure to store data in use, an instance of the structure in memory has to be created.
  • Structures are the value types, hence it is required to create an instance of a structure which is as simple as declaring a variable.

Given that,

//Define the Structure

struct Engine

{

    //Declare the fields

  public int cylinders;

  public int horsepower;

  public int torque;

}
