Struct field name with space or special character

Hi,

For table name, we can use space or special character when using stiring type.

However for the structure varailble,it doesn't work. Is there a way to have space in structure field names?

thanks,

You could use underscore in place of space.

This sounds like you are putting meta-data into the fieldnames. Remember that meta-data is data, and data belongs in variables not in their field/variable names. forcing meta-data into field/variable names will make your code fragile (e.g. like this question hints at), slow, and complex. Best avoided.

No.

Another option is to use dictionaries, which are a bit more similar to structs than tables, e.g.

secretID=["Steve Rogers", "Tony Stark", "Donald Blake"];
hero=["Captain America","Iron Man","Thor"];

d=dictionary(secretID,hero);

out = d("Steve Rogers")

out = "Captain America"
