What are the differences between structures and arrays?

Arrays are collections of repeated data items. Structures are complex data items made up of other data items, including, potentially, other structures and arrays. You can, of course, also have arrays of structures. Array items can be accessed by using its subscript whereas structure items can be accessed using its dot or "arrow" operator in C, C++, C#, Java, and JavaScript.


Is Array a linear data structure?

Conceptually, an array is a fixed size collection. However, a "ragged" array is not a linear one, nor a "matrix". Those 2 maybe thought of an array of arrays, ragged ones are arrays with different lengths, while matrices are arrays of the same length. Depends on the context of the question, an array is linear itself, regardless what kind of elements it contains. But there exists some arrays (I used math term on purposes) that are not "linear" (the ragged, the matrix, the 3-dimensional, 4-, etc.), thus, NOT all Arrays are Linear.

What is the need for structure datatype?

A structure is not a data type. We use structures to define new data types (user-defined data types). If we didn't have the ability to create user-defined types we'd be limited solely to the built-in data types and arrays of those types.
