Thread: defining struct variable without using typedef

when i define a new variable called temp
i get
missing ';' before 'type'

why??

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
 

 
struct line {
	char name[21], address[21], ID[10];
	int grade;
	int code;
};


 
int main ()
{
FILE* c[2];
 struct line  temp;

c[0]=fopen("c:\\fl1.txt","r");//vote files ,each file represents the votes from a college
c[1]=fopen("c:\\fl2.txt","r");
struct line temp;

fclose(c[0]);
fclose(c[1]);



	return 0;
}

Which line generates the error?

And I'm not 100% sure but could "line" be a reserved word?

Missed that...

By the way, please learn to properly indent your code. Very hard to read otherwise.
