Introduction
• Arrays
– Structures of related data items
– Static entity – same size throughout program

2
Name of array
Arrays (Note that all
elements of this
• Array array have the
same name, c)
– Group of consecutive memory locations
– Same name and type c[0] -45
c[1] 6
• To refer to an element, specify c[2] 0
c[3] 72
– Array name c[4] 1543
– Position number c[5] -89
c[6] 0
• Format: c[7] 62

arrayname[ position number ] c[8] -3

c[9] 1
– First element at position 0 c[10] 6453
– n element array named c: c[11] 78

• c[ 0 ], c[ 1 ]...c[ n – 1 ]
Position number
of the element
within array c

Arrays
• Array elements are like normal variables
c[ 0 ] = 3;
printf( "%d", c[ 0 ] );
– Perform operations in subscript. If x equals 3
c[ 5 - 2 ] == c[ 3 ] == c[ x ]

Declaring Arrays
• When declaring arrays, specify
– Name
– Type of array
– Number of elements
arrayType arrayName[ numberOfElements ];
– Examples:
int c[ 10 ];
float myArray[ 3284 ];
• Declaring multiple arrays of same type
– Format similar to regular variables
– Example:
int b[ 100 ], x[ 27 ];

Examples Using Arrays

• Initializers
int n[ 5 ] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
– If not enough initializers, rightmost elements become 0
int n[ 5 ] = { 0 }
• All elements 0
– If too many a syntax error is produced syntax error
– C arrays have no bounds checking
• If size omitted, initializers determine it
int n[ ] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
– 5 initializers, therefore 5 element array

10 3. Print
11 printf( "%s%13s%17s\n", "Element", "Value", "Histogram" );

13 for ( i = 0; i <= SIZE - 1; i++ ) {
14 printf( "%7d%13d ", i, n[ i ]) ;
15
16 for ( j = 1; j <= n[ i ]; j++ ) /* print one bar */
17 printf( "%c", '*' );

19 printf( "\n" );

Examples Using Arrays

• Character arrays
– String “first” is really a static array of characters
– Character arrays can be initialized using string literals
char string1[] = "first";
• Null character '\0' terminates strings
• string1 actually has 6 elements
– It is equivalent to
char string1[] = { 'f', 'i', 'r', 's', 't', '\0' };
– Can access individual characters
string1[ 3 ] is character ‘s’
– Array name is address of array, so & not needed for scanf
scanf( "%s", string2 );
• Reads characters until whitespace encountered
• Can write beyond end of array, be careful

#include <stdio.h>

void main()
{
int i,n,a[100];

printf("\n\nRead n number of values in an array and display it in reverse order:\n");

printf("------------------------------------------------------------------------\n");

printf("Input the number of elements to store in the array :");

scanf("%d",&n);

printf("Input %d number of elements in the array :\n",n);

for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
printf("element - %d : ",i);
scanf("%d",&a[i]);

printf("\nThe values store into the array are : \n");

for(i=n-1;i>=0;i--)
{
printf("% 5d",a[i]);
}
printf("\n\n");
}

Read n number of values in an array and display it in reverse order:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Input the number of elements to store in the array :3
Input 3 number of elements in the array :
element - 0 : 2
element - 1 : 5
element - 2 : 7

The values store into the array are :

2 5 7

The values store into the array in reverse are :

7 5 2

Find maximum and minimum element in an array :

--------------------------------------------------
Input the number of elements to be stored in the array :3
Input 3 elements in the array :
