Structured Variables

Structure variables are made up not only of one element but of a bundle of separate variables. A structure variable engine, for example, could consist of the variables on/off (type Bool), temperature (type INT) and performance (typ SINT).

Like every variable, structure variables are also based on a data type – in this case on a data type structure. This in turn combines several data types into a structure. Structure data types can also be nested – this means a structure data type can also in turn contain a further structure data type.

Both normal variables as well as structure variables can be developed as arrays. Thereby up to 3 dimensional arrays are possible.
