Best Answer

A structure is a collection of data (variables) with some common meaning or semantical link meaningful to the programmer. They don't have any meaning to the PC (though their use influences the flow of your program).

In general, it is easier to simply collect information in a structure - for example, the width and height of an image, or the first/last names and addresses of customers. It's just easier to think that way, because things in life tend to have relations to each other.

A structure is an aggregate of two or more data types. Unlike an array where all elements must be of the same type, the members of a structure need not be of the same type.
