THIS IS ARRAYS

3. Introduction
• Arrays
– Group of consecutive memory locations.
– Each memory location is known as element.
– The name and type of each element is same.
– Declare an array with the name and size.
• data_type array_name[size];
int a[5];
char name[20];
3

4. Introduction…
int a[5];
• Above statement creates an array of…
• Data type: integer
First element at 0th position
• Array name: a
• Array size : 5
Memory
• Counting starts from 0.
0 1 2 3 4
4

5. Introduction…
• Format to access an element.
– array_name[position];
int a[5];
Printf(“%d”,a[3]);
0 1 2 3 4
5

6. Initialization of Array
• Initialize at the time of declaration.
int a[5] = { 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 };
• Initialization all elements with zero.
int a[5] = { 0 };
• Initialize all element and define it’s size.
int a[ ] = { 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 };
• 5 values means 5 elements in array a.
6

7. Initialization of Array…
• All the elements can be initialized as the
normal variables.
int a[5];
a[0] = 10;
a[1] = 20;
a[2] = 30;
a[3] = 40;
a[4] = 50;
7

8. Initialization of Array…
• Initialize all elements using loops.
for (int i=0; i<=4; i++)
{
scanf(“%d”,&a[ i ]);
}
8

9. Character Arrays
• Character arrays can be initialized using string
literals (Double quotes).
char c* + = “hello”;
– “hello” is a string.
– String terminates with the null character ‘0’.
– String “hello” has 6 elements.
– We can also initialize it with
char c* + = ,‘h’ , ’e’ , ’l’ , ’l’ , ’o’, ‘0’-;

10. More about arrays
• Array name is the address of the first element
of the array.
printf(“%u”,&a[0]);
printf(“%u”, a);
• Both statements will produce the same result.
10

11. More about arrays
• In case of character type array we can scan the
contents by using array name only.
scanf(“%s”,c);
– Reads characters until whitespace encountered.
– May go beyond the size of an array.
11

12. Multi-Dimensional Arrays
• Two-Dimensional arrays
– Assume it as a table of row and column.
– First specify Row and then column.
int a[2][3];
– Array a have 2 rows and 3 columns.

1 [0][0] [0][1] [0][2]
[1][0] [1][1] [1][2]
12

13. Two-Dimentional Array…
int a[2][3];
• Array a contains 2 rows and 3 columns, that
means it has 2 * 3 = 6 elements.
• These elements will store in consecutive
memory locations. a[1][2]
a[1][1]
a[1][0]
a[0][2]
a[0][1]
a[0][0]
13

14. Initialization
int a[2][3] = { {1,2,3} {10,20,30} };
1 2 3
10 20 30
int a[2][3] = { {1,2} {10} };
1 2 0
10 0 0
14

15. Accessing Elements
for(i=0; i<=1; i++)
{
for(j=0; j<=2; j++)
{
printf(“%d”,a[i][j]);
}
}
printf(“%d”,a[1][2]);

16. Mind Bend
• Write a program which performs the following
tasks:
– Initialize an integer array of 10 elements.
– Print array in a well formatted way.
– Multiply each element of array by 3.
– Print the array elements.
• Write a program to pick up the largest and
smallest number from any 3 x 3 array.
16

17. Mind Bend
• Write a program to add two 5 x 5 matrix.
• Write a program to initialize an array of 6 x 6
by keyboard and copy elements of an array to
the another 4 x 9 array. 1
