How to access a struct within a struct?

Can someone tell me how to do this?

Just a thought that entered my mind when learning about structs.
First thought was:

struct one
{
struct two;
}

struct two
{
three;
}

one->two->three

would this be how you would access "three"?

BINTIME_ADD(9)						   BSD Kernel Developer's Manual					    BINTIME_ADD(9)

NAME
bintime_add -- operations on ``bintime'' SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/time.h> vid bintime_add(struct bintime *bt, const struct bintime *bt2); void bintime_addx(struct bintime *bt, uint64_t x); void bintime_sub(struct bintime *bt, const struct bintime *bt2); void bintime2timespec(const struct bintime *bt, struct timespec *ts); void timespec2bintime(const struct timespec *ts, struct bintime *bt); void bintime2timeval(const struct bintime *bt, struct timeval *tv); void timeval2bintime(const struct timeval *tv, struct bintime *bt); DESCRIPTION
These functions are provided for convenience as part of the machine-independent timecounter(9) framework. All of them operate with the bintime structure. The function bintime_add() adds the time information stored in bt2 to bt. Conversely, bintime_sub() subtracts bt2 from bt. The bintime_addx() function stores the fraction of a second x to bt. Like the function names bespeak, bintime2timespec() converts the bintime structure to struct timespec and timespec2bintime() does the oppo- site. The functions bintime2timeval() and timeval2bintime() operate with struct timeval instead. The result is stored to the right-hand side. SEE ALSO
