Accessing Structure Members
To access any member of a structure, we use the member access operator (.). The
member access operator is coded as a period between the structure variable name and the structure
member that we wish to access. You would use the keyword struct to define variables of
structure type. The following example shows how to use a structure in a program:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

struct Books
{

char title[50];

char author[50];
char subject[100];
int book_id;

};

int main( )
{

struct Books Book1; /* Declare Book1 of type Book */
struct Books Book2; /* Declare Book2 of type Book */

/* book 1 specification */

strcpy( Book1.title, "C Programming");
strcpy( Book1.author, "Nuha Ali");

strcpy( Book1.subject, "C Programming Tutorial");
Book1.book_id = 6495407;

/* book 2 specification */

strcpy( Book2.title, "Telecom Billing");
strcpy( Book2.author, "Zara Ali");
