Array Basics for Programming Students

This document discusses one-dimensional and multi-dimensional arrays. It defines arrays as data structures that can hold multiple values of the same type stored consecutively in memory. One-dimensional arrays use a single set of indexes, while multi-dimensional arrays have two or more indexes to represent rows and columns. The document provides syntax examples and discusses initializing, reading from, and displaying array data. Classwork examples involve reading user input into arrays and performing operations like finding maximum values or summing matrices.

Array

INTRODUCTION
ONE-DIMENSIONAL ARRAY
MULTIDIMENSIONAL ARRAY

Introduction
It holds multiple values of same type.
Each block of array is stored consecutively in

memory.
SYNTAX:
data-type name[size1][size2][sizen];
Example:
int a[6];

Advantage of Array
Huge amount of data can be stored under single

variable name.
Searching of data item is faster.
2 dimension arrays are used to represent the
matrices.
It is helpful in implementing other data structure
like linked list, queue,stack.

One dimensional Array


SYNTAX:
data-type name[index];
EXAMPLE:
int num[10];

Initialization

int num[6]={2,4,6,7,8,12};
Individual elements can also be initialize as:

num[0]=2;
num[1]=4;
num[2]=6;
num[3]=7;
num[4]=8;
num[5]=12;

Reading Data from User


for loop is used to read data from the user.

Class work
WAP to read 10 numbers from the user and display

them.
WAP to read 20 numbers from the user and find out
the highest number.

Multi-dimensional Array
In multi-dimensional we focus on the two

dimensional array.
SYNTAX:
data-type name[row-size][column-size];
EXAMPLE:
int a[3][4];

Initialization
int odd[3][2]={1,3,5,7,9,11};
Individual element can also be assigned as:

Odd[0][0]=1;
Odd[0][1]=3;
Odd[1][0]=5;
Odd[1][1]=7;
Odd[2][0]=9;
Odd[2][1]=11;

Reading Data from the user


Nested for Loop is used.

Class Work
WAP to read a 3*3 matrix from the user and display

it in the appropriate format.


WAP to read two 3*3 matrices from the user and
display their sum.
