Thread: dynamic array of structures

I am doing exercises from a book and it asks that I, "use _new_ to allocate an array [of structures]," I have done it this way:

Code:

struct CandyBar	// define CandyBar structure
{
  char name [20];
  float weight;
  unsigned int calories;
};

int main()
{
  CandyBar * pEaster;	// make pointer to Candy bar type
  pEaster = new CandyBar[3]; //allocate mem for 3 CandyBar's
  delete [] pEaster; 	// free memory
  return 0;
}

But then I can't figure out how to assign values to the structures' elements. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
