1st :
FUNCTIONS :
these are derived data types
STRUCTURES :
these are user defined datatypes
2nd :
FUNCTIONS :
function returns a value
STRUCTURES :
structures is not a function but only a datatype which returns no value.
3rd :
FUNCTIONS :
function does not have a provision of self referencial pointers.
STRUCTURES :
in this we can make one data member as a pointer to the same structure. that is self referencial structures.
4th :
FUNCTIONS :
function s consists of formal as well as actual arguments.
STRUCTURES :
here structures is a special datatype which holds all the possible form of data (i.e) int, char,float,double ,in combination s.
5th :
FUNCTIONS :
functions are reusable anytime and anywhere in the program, whenever we wann to re-use the code again we can simply call the function.
STRUCTURES :
but in structures we can do as above,we must access the data using '.' or when comes to pointers we must access through '->' operator
this are the statements that to my knowledge can said as difference... BUT STRUCTURES CANNOT BE COMPARED WITH FUNCTION SINCE, TWO ARE INDEPENDENT TO EACH OTHER.
