Differences between structures and arrays

List out differences between structures and arrays

The following are the differences between structures and arrays:

- Array elements are homogeneous. Structure elements are of different data type.
- Array allocates static memory and uses index / subscript for accessing elements of the array. Structures allocate dynamic memory and uses (.) operator for accessing the member of a structure.

- Array element access takes less time in comparison with structures.
