Properties of Array<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\n
• Each element in the array is of the same data type of which the array is declared.<\/li>\n
• Array carries the same size int = 4bytes.<\/li>\n
• Elements in array are arranged in a consecutive blocks of memory at memory locations.<\/li>\n
• The first element in the array is stored at the smallest memory location.<\/li>\n
• Elements of the array can be randomly accessed since we calculate the index of each element of the array with the given base address and the size of the element.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Advantages of Array<\/strong><\/h2>\n

  \n
  • Arrays <\/strong>use less code for code effectiveness.<\/li>\n
  • By using the \u00a0loop, we can retrieve the elements of an array easily.<\/li>\n
  • To sort the elements of the array, we need a few lines of code only.<\/li>\n
  • We can access any element randomly using the array.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Declaration of C Array<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    We can declare an array in the c language as below<\/span><\/p>\n

    <\/div>

    data_type array_name[array_size];  <\/code><\/pre> <\/div>\n
    Now, let us see the example to declare the array.<\/span><\/p>\n
     
     <\/div> 
    int marks[5];  <\/code><\/pre> <\/div>\n
    Here, int is the\u00a0data_type<\/span><\/em>, marks are the\u00a0array_name<\/span><\/em>, and 5 is the\u00a0array_size<\/span><\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n
    Initialization of C Array<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    The simplest way to initialize an array is by using the index of each element. We can initialize each element of the array by using the index. Consider the following example.<\/span><\/p>\n
     
     <\/div> 
    marks[0]=80;\/\/initialization of array  marks[1]=60;  marks[2]=70;  marks[3]=85;  marks[4]=75;  <\/code><\/pre> <\/div>\n

    Arrays are defined as collection of similar type of data items that is stored at consecutive blocks of memory locations. Arrays are deprived data types which can store primitive data types such as int, char, float, double etc. Arrays are also used to store pointers and structures in C.
