What are C structs and how do they manage memory?

C structs are user-defined data types that group related variables. They manage memory by allocating a contiguous block for all their members.

Can you explain how memory allocation works for structs?

When you declare a struct, memory is allocated based on the total size of its members. You can use malloc to allocate memory dynamically.

What happens if I create a struct inside a function?

If you create a struct inside a function, it is allocated on the stack and will be deallocated when the function exits.

How do I access struct members?

You can access struct members using the dot operator (.) for regular structs and the arrow operator (->) for pointers to structs.
