Answer
Hi Pawan

There are many errors in the code u have sent please remove the same and try again

struct student
{
int name[10];
float marks;
}a[2];

void main()
{int i=0;
for(i=0;i<=2;i++)
{
printf("please enter the name of the student \n")
scanf("%s",&a[i].name);
// variable name is declared as an array if int in the structure but you have used %s either change it to char or change %s to %d
printf("enter the marks of student\n");
scanf("%f",&a[i].marks);
}
}

Please let me know if the problem persist still
