    Arrays with structs?

    I have A[ROW][COL] which holds a value of either true or false, so 1 or 0, how would I also be able to hold another value next to this that can vary? How would I do this with structs?

    so if A[1][2]=1 and then I want to hold the sum value of 3, somewhere I can recall it, how would I do this?

    Would I have to do like A[1][2].sum=3.

    You are on the right track. You have to define the struct first, then make an array of it.

    What you want is something like this:

    Code:
    struct X{
      int flag;
      int sum;
    };
    
    /* make an array of X's */
    
    struct X[10];
    
    int i;
    
    for(i = 0;i < 10;i++){
       X[i].flag = 1;
       X[i].sum = 3;
    }
