使用结构体组织相关联的数据

结构体（ struct ），或称 structure ，是一种自定义的数据类型，允许你包装和命名多个相关的值，从而形成一个有意义的组合。如果你熟悉一门面向对象语言，struct 就像对象中的数据属性。在本章中，我们会对元组和结构体进行比较和对比，并演示什么时候结构体是一种更好的数据分组方式。

We’ll demonstrate how to define and instantiate structs. We’ll discuss how to define associated functions, especially the kind of associated functions called methods, to specify behavior associated with a struct type. Structs and enums (discussed in the next chapter) are the building blocks for creating new types in your program’s domain to take full advantage of Cairo's compile-time type checking.
