error: expected expression before '{' token
ba = {{"Tropilleur",2}, ^

Can anyone help with fill in a table of struct please!

Answer 1

You cannot assign an array with an initializer list after declaration. If you combine your declaration with your initializer list, that should clear up your issue.

Additionally, check your struct definition, where you declare a pointer to a char array. You will likely want a pointer or an array, not both in this case.
