Structure elements can be referenced by writing the structure variable before the structure element. The structure variable and the structure element are separated by a dot (.) which is called the dot operator. For example
st.name
st is a structure variable and name is an element in the structure
The program illustrates how to input and output elements in a structure. Details of employees namely code, name and salary are given as input in the form of a structure. The details of employees are also displayed in the same program.
