struct in C does not compile

I have made the following code in C:

 1 |   #include <stdio.h>
 2 |   #include <stdlib.h>
 3 |   #include <time.h>
 4 |   
 5 |   typedef struct{
 6 |           int cod;
 7 |   } car;
 8 |   
 9 |   int main(int argc, char *argv[])
10 |   {
11 |     int i;
12 |     car store[10];
13 |     srand(time(NULL));
14 |     for (i=0;i<10;i++){
15 |         store[i].cod=rand();
16 |     }
17 |     system("PAUSE");
18 |     return 0;
19 |   }

The problem is that this code does not compile. The errors I got are:

 7  C:\Dev-Cpp\main.c [Warning] useless keyword or type name in empty declaration 
 7  C:\Dev-Cpp\main.c [Warning] unnamed struct/union that defines no instances 
15  C:\Dev-Cpp\main.c request for member `cod' in something not a structure or union

It appears to be a bug in the compiler you are using. I can only suggest adding a tag to your struct type

typedef struct car {
        int cod;
} car;

It won't require any changes in the rest of the code, but might help it to compile.
