Dot (".") Operator

The dot operator can be used to gain access to public data within a struct or some data types like vectors.

// working with a struct
struct strName
{
     string First;
     string Last;
};

void main()
{
     struct strName test;

     // dot operator assignment
     test.First = "Bob";
     test.Last = "Dobbs";

     // dot operator access
string sFname = test.First; string sLname = test.Last; // working with a vector data type vector v = Vector(1.0f, 2.0f, 3.0f); v.x = 12.0f; }
