Simple pointer issue

[Lucas Fiorini]

when i try to read the carbon n the hydrogen, it appears a lot of error messages.in a previous program I did the same but instead of new int was new int[8], is there any difference? and why is not reading properly?

  #include <iostream>
using namespace std;

typedef struct{
    int* carbon;
    int* hydrogen;
}Hidrocarbon;


int main(){
    Hidrocarbon* mass = new Hidrocarbon;
    
    mass->carbon = new int;
    mass->hydrogen = new int;
    
    cin >> mass->carbon;
    cin >> mass->hydrogen;
    
    cout<< (mass->carbon)*12 + mass->hydrogen<<endl;
    delete carbon;
    delete hydrogen;
    delete mass
    return 0;
}

The pointer needs to be dereferenced to access the integer which it points to.

Also the deletes don't match the news.

    Hidrocarbon* mass = new Hidrocarbon;
    
    mass->carbon = new int;
    mass->hydrogen = new int;
    
    cin >> *mass->carbon;
    cin >> *mass->hydrogen;
    
    cout<< (*mass->carbon)*12 + *mass->hydrogen<<endl;
    delete mass->carbon;
    delete mass->hydrogen;
    delete mass;

Though it has to be said, the pointers don't seem useful here.
