int main() {
int i, len;
len = 3;
Athlete *roster = new Athlete[len];

roster[0].name = "John";
roster[0].age = 24;
roster[1].id = 2;

roster[1].age = 22;
roster[2].id = 3;
roster[2].name = "Dave";
roster[2].age = 25;
for (i = 0; i < len; i++) {
cout << "#" << roster[i].id << " " << roster[i].name << " " << roster[i].age << endl;
}
delete roster;
return 0;
}

Answer 2

I define a struct named Athlete that has 3 attributes (int id, string name, int age). Then in the main code, I create a dynamic array of 3 Athletes named roster, and initialize their attributes. Then I print their attributes, Athlete by Athlete.

As for actual coding, you can use the Code Playground to check out programs made by others and code your own. It's pretty convenient.

You can also find exercices on the web.
