structure Struct in Visual Basic .NET

In Visual Basic .NET, a struct is a user-defined data type that can hold multiple values. The values in a struct can be of different data types, such as integers, strings, or other structs.

To create a struct in Visual Basic .NET, you can use the Structure keyword followed by the name of the struct. Here's an example of a struct that holds a person's name and age:

Structure Person
    Dim Name As String
    Dim Age As Integer
End Structure

Once you've defined your struct, you can create variables of that type and set their values:

Dim John As Person
John.Name = "John Smith"
John.Age = 30

You can also initialize a struct variable when you declare it:

Dim Bob As New Person With {.Name = "Bob Johnson", .Age = 45}

You can access the values in a struct using the dot syntax:

Console.WriteLine(John.Name & " is " & John.Age & " years old.")

You can also use a struct as a parameter in a function or subroutine:

Sub PrintPerson(p As Person)
    Console.WriteLine(p.Name & " is " & p.Age & " years old.")
End Sub
' Usage:

PrintPerson(John)

PrintPerson(Bob)
