Create a structure Point(x,y)

Ada

Tagged Type

Ada tagged types are extensible through inheritance. The reserved word tagged causes the compiler to create a tag for the type. The tag identifies the position of the type in an inheritance hierarchy.

type Point is tagged record
   X : Integer := 0;
   Y : Integer := 0;
end record;

Record Type

Ada record types are not extensible through inheritance. Without the reserved word tagged the record does not belong to an inheritance hierarchy.

type Point is record
   X : Integer := 0;
   Y : Integer := 0;
end record;

Parameterized Types

An Ada record type can contain a discriminant. The discriminant is used to choose between internal structural representations. Parameterized types were introduced to Ada before tagged types. Inheritance is generally a cleaner solution to multiple representations than is a parameterized type.

type Person (Gender : Gender_Type) is record
   Name   : Name_String;
   Age    : Natural;
   Weight : Float;
   Case Gender is
      when Male =>
         Beard_Length : Float;
      when Female =>
         null;
   end case;
end record;

In this case every person will have the attributes of gender, name, age, and weight. A person with a Male gender will also have a beard length.

Tcl

This appears to be a sub-functionality of a proper associative array:

 array set point {x 4 y 5}
 set point(y) 7
 puts "Point is {$point(x),$point(y)}"
 # => Point is {4,7}
