Syntax of Array Declaration

data_type array_name [size];


or
data_type array_name [size1] [size2]...[sizeN];

where N is the number of dimensions.

// C Program to illustrate the array declaration


#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
// declaring array of integers
int arr_int[5];
// declaring array of characters
char arr_char[5];
return 0;
}
C Array Initialization
1. Array Initialization with Declaration
data_type array_name [size] = {value1, value2, ... valueN};

2. Array Initialization with Declaration without Size


data_type array_name[] = {1,2,3,4,5};

// C Program to demonstrate array initialization


#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
// array initialization using initialier list
int arr[5] = { 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 };
// array initialization using initializer list without
// specifying size
int arr1[] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
// array initialization using for loop
float arr2[5];
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
arr2[i] = (float)i * 2.1;
}
return 0;
}
Access Array Elements
array_name [index];

// C Program to illustrate element access using array


// subscript
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
// array declaration and initialization
int arr[5] = { 15, 25, 35, 45, 55 };
// accessing element at index 2 i.e 3rd element
printf("Element at arr[2]: %d\n", arr[2]);
// accessing element at index 4 i.e last element
printf("Element at arr[4]: %d\n", arr[4]);
// accessing element at index 0 i.e first element
printf("Element at arr[0]: %d", arr[0]);
return 0;
}

Output
Element at arr[2]: 35
Element at arr[4]: 55
Element at arr[0]: 15
C Array Traversal
Array Traversal using for Loop
for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
array_name[i];
}
// C Program to demonstrate the use of array
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
// array declaration and initialization
int arr[5] = { 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 };
// modifying element at index 2
arr[2] = 100;
// traversing array using for loop
printf("Elements in Array: ");
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
printf("%d ", arr[i]);
}
return 0;
}

Output
Elements in Array: 10 20 100 40 50

Types of Array in C
1. One Dimensional Array in C
Syntax of 1D Array in C
array_name [size];
// C Program to illustrate the use of 1D array
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
// 1d array declaration
int arr[5];
// 1d array initialization using for loop
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
arr[i] = i * i - 2 * i + 1;
}
printf("Elements of Array: ");
// printing 1d array by traversing using for loop
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
printf("%d ", arr[i]);
}
return 0;
}

2. Multidimensional Array in C
A. Two-Dimensional Array in C
Syntax of 2D Array in C
array_name[size1] [size2];
// C Program to illustrate 2d array
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
// declaring and initializing 2d array
int arr[2][3] = { 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 };
printf("2D Array:\n");
// printing 2d array
for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++) {
printf("%d ",arr[i][j]);
}
printf("\n");
}
return 0;
}

Output
2D Array:
10 20 30
40 50 60
