Hi All
I am studying structs at the moment and according to the tutorial in the link below (from minute 14), there are a number of ways to access and modify structs.

however two of the ways he describe (the ones I have commented out) don't seem to work in arduino code. I just checking if this is normal or maybe I am missing something.
Also I am trying to use String instead of using a char array for the name type, but I get errors when using strcpy... yes I am aware that I can simply do clare.name = "Clare"; when using String rather than char but I wander... is strcpy only working with char arrays and not with strings ?? 
example:
struct students{
char name[25];
int age;
int rollno;
};
struct students john {"John", 24, 555};
struct students clare, bob;
// struct students mark { name : "Mark", age : 24, rollno : 566 };
// struct students mark { .name = "Mark", .age = 24, .rollno = 566 };
void setup()
{
clare.age = 55;
strcpy(clare.name, "Clare");
}
void loop() {
}
