Chapter 10.1, Problem 7STE

Program Plan Intro

Structure in C++:

Structure is a user defined datatype that is used to combine data items of different data types.

Defining a Structure:

In order to define a structure, the “struct” statement is used. This statement defines a new data type with more than one member.

struct [structure tag] {

    member definition;

    member definition;

    ...

    Member definition;

}[one or more structure variables];

Here, the “structure tag” is optional and each member definition is a normal variable definition. Specifying one or more structure variables at the end of the structure definition is also optional.

Given:

The following function declaration is given.

void readShoeRecord(ShoeType& newShoe);

//Fills newShoe with values read from the keyboard.
