When you define a new struct(ure) and initialize it you can use the {} to define the internals of the values within for example
typedef struct { int coding; int friends; } newType; newType nT = { 10, 20}; |
so coding = 10 and friends = 20
But if you try and over initialize the values that are not present, e.g.
newType nT = { 10, 20, 30 }; // there is not place to put the 30 |
then the compiler will compile with
error: too many initializers for
