    Code:
    int age,id=0;
    You can't initialize a variable inside a struct definition. I really doubt you always do it that way. Also, next time it would be nice if you actually included the error message you get including the line number.

    If you understand what you're doing, you're not learning anything.

    int c=0;
    int input;
    }
    If you want to initialize a struture when you define it, you can do this:


    Code:
    struct rec
    {
    int age,id=0;
    char name[31];
    } recVar = {0, 0, "string"};
    first two zeros are for, age and id. "string" is for, name.

    OR...

    During declaration:
    Code:
    struct rec recVar = {0, 0, "string"};
