What is the difference b/w Structure & Union?

What is the difference b/w Structure & Union?..

Answer / nakul sharma

Memory allocated for any structure is equal to the sum of
memory required by each structure member.

Example: In a structure 'abc' below, memory allocated will
be 7 Bytes (2 Bytes for int a + 1 Byte for char b + 4 Bytes
for float c ina 32 bit processor)
struct abc
{
int a;
char b;
float c;
}

But in union memory allocated for it is equal to the memory
required by the biggest (in terms of memory it use) union
member.

Example: In a union 'abc' below, memory allocated will be 4
Bytes as float c is the biggest union member here and it
uses 4 Bytes of memory in 32 bit processor.

union abc
{
int a;
char b;
float c;
}

The purpose of this exercise is to benchmark file writing and reading speed. This exercise is divided into two parts. a). Write a file character by character such that the total file size becomes approximately >10K. After writing close the file handler, open a new stream and read the file character by character. Record both times. Execute this exercise at least 4 times b). Create a buffer capable of storing 100 characters. Now after generating the characters, first store them in the buffer. Once the buffer is filled up, store all the elements in the file. Repeat the process until the total file size becomes approximately >10K.While reading read a while line, store it in buffer and once buffer gets filled up, display the whole buffer. Repeat the exercise at least 4 times with different size of buffer (50, 100, 150 …). Records the times. c). Do an analysis of the differences in times and submit it in class.
