Description

Get an element from a structure

Arguments and Return Values

Arguments: A structure and the label of the element desired

Return Value: The element extracted from the structure

Usage

Syntax: get_struct(object = STRUCT, name = STRING)

The get_struct() returns an element from a structure. This function is shorthand for "object.name", but in this case, name can be a string variable.

get_struct() does not remove the element from the original structure.

Examples

dv> struct 
struct, 3 elements
    a: "element 1"
    b: "element 2"
    c: "element 3"

dv> elem = get_struct(struct,"b")
"element 2"

dv> struct   
struct, 3 elements
    a: "element 1"
    b: "element 2"
    c: "element 3"
