How do I relate Two arrays together

Question

I mean, lets say I have Students array with 5 names in it, say
string Studs [5] ={"Dre","Lis", "john";"pat", "mark"};
and another array with Student marks in it, say
int marks [5] ={15,23,70,45,86};
How do I make so that when I call, say, John..I automatically get his mark as well(70)
thanks in adv

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
struct test
{
string name[5];
int no[5];
};
int main() {
test ob;
int n;
cout<<"enter name array ";
for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
cin>>ob.name[i];
cout<<"enter no array ";
for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
cin>>ob.no[i];
cout<<"enter no to be searched: ";
cin>>n;
for(int i=0;i<5;i++){
if(n == ob.no[i]){
cout<<"the respective name is :"<<ob.name[i];
return 0;
}
}
cout<<"no not found ";
return 0;
}

Answer 2

You want to create structure or class Student. That would be the best way to do it.
Structure is something that you also have in C. It's user defined type. So you found define new type called student that has two members, int mark and string name. Once you do it, you'll be able to create array of Students.
More oop way is to created class Students, which would also have these two members. There are slight difference between structure and class, but I won't write that.

Answer 3

it can be done by switch,ifelse,structures,class.For basic level follow switch over if else as it takes more time to chech condition, can use structure easy and convinent

I'd appreciate a Demo if possible
