This seems a fundamental part of C, but alas I don't know how to do this,
arbitrary code follows;
----------------------------------------
typedef struct {
float re;
float im;
} complex;

void main(void){
complex nick[4];
complex *parker;
parker=&nick[0];

*parker.re=3;   // This line wrong
}
--------------------------------------------

How do I access elements of nick with a pointer is
how do I set parker.re (that is;  nick[0].re ?)

Thanks, Nick.
