structures giving problem

[sambafriends]

strunct num
{
int count;
};

void main()
{
num n1;
num *p;
p=#
scanf("%d", p->count);
printf("%d", p->count);
}

when I attempting to do this one I got the error message like

0 Null pointer .....

Try scanf("%d", &(p->count));

1. struct num, not strunct
2. If compiling in C, then struct num n1; struct num* p; 3. p = &n1

You're living in the fast lane.
Before you can understand structures and pointers in C you should have learned that main is defined as: int main(void) or int main(int argc, char *arg[]) and in both cases it needs to return an int.

Inside a host operating system main will always return a value, because that's the way the C standard says it has to be.

Tried what, and failed at what? You need to show us what you tried or at least give us a brief explanation about your problem.

You can drive your car without fastening seat belt, or walk through minefield :)
But it's risky!

So always use int main() and return zero if succesful (in which case you don't even need to write return because compiler does it automatically for you.
