+
+Primitive types are the most basic types available in Rust and don't have
+fields. To access data via named fields, struct types are used. Example:
+
+```
+// We declare struct called `Foo` containing two fields:
+struct Foo {
+ x: u32,
+ y: i64,
+}
+
+// We create an instance of this struct:
+let variable = Foo { x: 0, y: -12 };
+// And we can now access its fields:
+println!("x: {}, y: {}", variable.x, variable.y);
+```
