Hi there, while I checking some C code examples I find this statement , I cant able understand this

Is it a String(Array) or struct or Function or what it is ? how does it work ? what does it do ?

Some may found this more basic but i really dont know the name or method of this code to google , someone help me out

You could google "different ways of c structure initialization". — Weather Vane, Apr 14 '18 at 16:40
@Jean-FrançoisFabre Not an exact dupe. The other question is about the older GNU syntax. — melpomene, Apr 14 '18 at 16:42
I haven't found a duplicate question yet. :-) Just an answer to a different question that was accepted despite not answering the question at all. — melpomene, Apr 14 '18 at 16:44
