Array Data Structure :-
Introduction of Array
in this tutorial, we will learn arrays in data structures. An array is defined as a collection of identical data items stored on attached memory locations. This is the simplest data structure that can be accessed randomly using the index number of each data element.
In C programming, they acquire data types that can store primitive types of data such as double, float, etc.
Properties of array
Some of the properties of the array are listed below-
- Each component in the array is of the same data type and has 4 bytes of the same size.
- The elements in an array are stored in consecutive memory locations from which the first element is stored in the smallest memory space.
Why are arrays required?
Arrays are useful because -
- Value arrays are easy to find and find in arrays.
- Arrays are used for easy and quick processing of multiple values.
How to access an element from the array?
We need the following steps to access any random element in the array -
- Base Address of the array.
- Size of an element in bytes.
- Type of indexing, array follows.
