Array of structs example

Question

i am bit new to structs in c#..

My question says:

Write a console application that receives the following information for a set of students: studentid, studentname, coursename, date-of-birth.. The application should also be able to display the information being entered.. Implement this using structs..

I have come up till this-->

struct student
{
    public int s_id;
    public String s_name, c_name, dob;
}
class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Please enter StudentId, StudentName, CourseName, Date-Of-Birth");
        s_id = Console.ReadLine();
        s_name = Console.ReadLine();
        c_name = Console.ReadLine();
        s_dob = Console.ReadLine();
        student[] arr = new student[4];
    }
}

Please help me after this..

Solution

You've started right - now you just need to fill the each student structure in the array:

struct student
{
    public int s_id;
    public String s_name, c_name, dob;
}
class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        student[] arr = new student[4];

        for(int i = 0; i < 4; i++)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Please enter StudentId, StudentName, CourseName, Date-Of-Birth");


            arr[i].s_id = Int32.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
            arr[i].s_name = Console.ReadLine();
            arr[i].c_name = Console.ReadLine();
            arr[i].s_dob = Console.ReadLine();
       }
    }
}

Now, just iterate once again and write these information to the console. I will let you do that, and I will let you try to make program to take any number of students, and not just 4.
