#include 

struct Person {
        char *name;
        int age;
        int height;
        int weight;
};


struct Person Person_create(char *name, int age, int height, int weight)
{
        struct Person who;
        who.name = name;
        who.age = age;
        who.height = height;
        who.weight = weight;

        return who;

void Person_print(struct Person who)

        printf("\tWeight: %d\n", who.weight);

int main(int argc, char *argv[])

        // make two people structures 
        struct Person joe = Person_create("Joe Alex", 32, 64, 140);
        struct Person frank = Person_create("Frank Blank", 20, 72, 180);

        //print them out and where they are in memory
        printf("Joe is at memory location %p:\n", &joe);
        Person_print(joe);

        printf("Frank is at memory location %p:\n", &frank);
        Person_print(frank);

        // make everyone age 20 and print them again
        joe.age += 20;
        joe.height -= 2;
        joe.weight += 40;
        Person_print(joe);

        frank.age += 20;
        frank.weight += 20;
        Person_print(frank);

        return 0;
