Urgent pls help!! How to search for an object in vectors?

Question

Hi,
I heard that a Vector can store an object right?
So lets say I created an object called Student that has the attributes: id, name, sex, age
1) Is vector able to store many students with all these attributes? cos the examples i have seen so far vector only seems to store one attribute
2) how do i search for sumthin in a vector? let's say i want to key in the student id or his name and find tt student's record to display it?
thx!

Answer 1
