To give a structure variable a value follow it by an equal sign and a list of the member values enclosed in braces. For example the following definition of a structure type for a date was given in the previous subsection struct Date int month int day int year Once the type Date is defined you can declare and initialize a structure variable called dueDate as follows Date dueDate 12 31 2003 The initializing values must be given in the order that corresponds to the order of member variables in the structure type definition. In this example receives the first initializing value of 12 receives the second value of 31 and receives the third value of 2003. It is an error if there are more initializer values than struct members. If there are fewer initializer values than struct members the provided values are used to initialize data members in order. .
