to put it simplistically it's a way of combining multiple variables into one for example, for a person you could have
person.haircolor person.echnicity person.age etc. but you can then also manipulate 'person' as a whole like you would any other variable, such as x[n] = person a struct, as far as i know, is like a class but with no methods. or a class is like a struct but with methods that act on the struct's data. i don't think structs technically exist in Python (though they exist in C/C++), but you could always use a plain class like a struct, like this, for a simple example: class Blah: pass b = blah() b.eyecolor = "brown" b.haircolor = "blond" b.ethnicity = "caucasion" On Mon, Nov 30, 2009 at 11:20 AM, Ronn Ross <ronn.r...@gmail.com> wrote: > I have recently come across something called a struct.
