How to write structure

[ahmed haredy]

struct info
        {
            string name, ID;
            double GPA;
        };
 
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            info[] student=new info [5];
            Console.WriteLine("Enter the data : ");
            for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
            {
                student[i] = Console.ReadLine();
            }

when i write this code it give me error
("Cannot implicitly convert type 'string' to 'ass.Program.info[]' ")

can i know what's the error about this code

You're trying to assign a string (the string you read from the console) into your struct (info). They are not the same type. A string is not the same thing as a struct.

Rabbit is referring to line 13 in the above code.
You have:

 student[i] = Console.ReadLine();

But it should be something like:

student[i].Name = Console.ReadLine();

If you are reading in a name at that point.

If you're reading in the GPA then it should be:

student[i].GPA = Console.ReadLine();

If you are expecting a string with all of the information about the student, then you should either create a function that accepts a string and puts the relevant information into the appropriate members of the struct...or you should consider implementing a constructor that takes a string and does this same process.
