Arrays

• Arrays are used to store multiple values in one single


variable
• cars = ["Ford", "Volvo", "BMW"]
What is an Array?

• An array is a special variable, which can hold more than


one value at a time.
• If you have a list of items (a list of car names, for
example), storing the cars in single variables could look
like this:
• car1 = "Ford"
car2 = "Volvo"
car3 = "BMW"
Cont.

• Access the Elements of an Array


• You refer to an array element by referring to the index
number.
• x = cars[0]
• Modify the value of the first array item:
• cars[0] = "Toyota"
• The Length of an Array

• Use the len() method to return the length of an array


(the number of elements in an array).
Return the number of elements in the cars array:
x = len(cars)
Looping Array Elements

• You can use the for in loop to loop through all the
elements of an array.
Print each item in the cars array:
for x in cars:
print(x)
Adding Array Elements

• You can use the append() method to add an element to


an array.
Add one more element to the cars array:
cars.append("Honda")
Removing Array Elements

• You can use the pop() method to remove an element


from the array
• Delete the second element of the cars array:
cars.pop(1)
You can also use the remove() method to remove an
element from the array.
Delete the element that has the value "Volvo":
cars.remove("Volvo")
Note: The list's remove() method only removes the first occurrence of the specified
value.
Array Methods
Python has a set of built-in methods that you can use on lists/arrays.
