Thread: Need help understanding Structure and instantiate

Hi all,

I went through my book's chapter about structures and it talks instantiate. I'm trying to make sure I understand what this means since it's used in a lot of places but I can find an exact definition of what it consists in.

A structure could be:

Code:

struct employee{
char name [20]   // array
int ID
float hours
}

then I instantiate in Main with something like:

Code:

 employe employeeschedule;

So can anyone tell me if I understand this concept correctly?
Thanks.
