Self Referential Structures
Self Referential structures are those structures that
have one or more pointers which point to the same
type of structure, as their member.

Program example:
struct node {
int data1;
char data2;
struct node* link;
};

int main()
{
struct node ob;
return 0;
}

ENUMERATED DATA
TYPES
Enumeration or Enum in C is a special kind of
data type defined by the user. It consists of
constant integrals or integers that are given
names by a user
Syntax to Define Enum in C
• An enum is defined by using the ‘enum’ keyword in C, and the use of a
comma separates the constants within.
The basic syntax of defining an enum is:
enum enum_name{int_const1, int_const2, int_const3, …. int_constN};

In the above syntax, the default value of int_const1 is 0, int_const2 is


1, int_const3 is 2, and so on. However, you can also change these
default values while declaring the enum.

#include <stdio.h>
enum days{Sunday=1, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,
Saturday};
int main()
for(int i=Sunday;i<=Saturday;i++)
{ printf("%d, ",i);
}
return 0;
}
Output 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

C typedef
The typedef is a keyword that is used to provide existing
data types with a new name. The C typedef keyword is
used to redefine the name of already existing data types.
When names of datatypes become difficult to use in
programs, typedef is used with user-defined datatypes,
which behave similarly to defining an alias for commands.
#include <stdio.h>
typedef int Integer;
int main() {
Integer n = 10;
printf("%d", n);
return 0;
}
Output:
10
