Question

The same code ran in TURBO C.

    struct details
    {
      char name[20];
      int year;
      float price;
    }my_str;

    details book1[10];

This error is produced. How can this be fixed?

ram.c: In function ‘main’:
ram.c:11:1: error: ‘details’ undeclared (first use in this function)
ram.c:11:1: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in

Answer 1

There are two ways to fix this:

Change second line to this:

struct details book1[10];

Or you can change the declaration to:

typedef struct{
    char name[20];
    int year;
    float price;
} details;

C is slightly different from C++, so you can’t declare structs quite the same way.
