coding

I CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHATS WRONG WITH THIS CODING, im doing this for class, and it making me crazy, there are too many errors, just beginning to learn this, and its giving me a hard, time, it would be nice, if anyone could tell me whats wrong,
thank you





Typedef struct
{
int deno;
int nume;
}fraction

fraction fr1;

fraction *ptr = fr1;
*ptr.deno = 2;

[Geolingo]

Use code tags plz.

struct fraction
{
	int deno; 
	int nume;
};

int main()
{
	fraction fr1;
	fraction *ptr = &fr1;
	ptr->deno = 2;
	return 0;
}

Good luck with your studys.

/*Try this thing*/
[code:]
typedef struct
{
int deno;
int nume;
}fraction;
main()
{
fraction fr1;
fraction *ptr=&fr1;
ptr->deno=2;
/*whenever you use pointer to access use ->.whenever compiler sees -> immediately it takes left operand as pointer*/
}
[\code]
or make change in BlackMagic guy code as
struct fraction fr1;

First of all, I don't see why you need the typedef struct there at all. And secondly if you want to use a typedef struct, you might want to give it a second argument?

typedef unsigned int U_INT;
/*The unsigned int is what your typedef'ing... and now whenever the compiler sees U_INT in your code, it knows your talking about an unsigned int */

typedef unsigned int U_INT;
main()
{
U_INT x = 0; /*The compiler replaces this with
unsigned int x = 0; */
}

Its [code] and [/code].

>>main()
Should be int main( ).

when you use a struct without typedef you can declare variables (usually global) outside of main.

ex:

struct blah
{
	int a;
	int b;
} std_blah, rem;

now std_blah and rem are gobal variables of type 'struct blah'

as with typedef struct...

typedef struct
{
	int a;
	int b;
} blah;

your declaring rem as a TYPE of struct.

ex:

struct first
{
	int a;
};

typedef struct
{
	int b;
} second;

int main()
{
	struct first blah1; //initializes first... notice the 'struct' in front
	second blah2; //initializes second... no need for struct since second is a TYPE rather than just a struct...
	return 0;
}

main() Is perfectly legal, no need for a return type. Remember that main is just a function, so like any other function, it can have a return type of nothing (void).

On some systems the main function returns an exit code
