Arrays in C
UNDERSTANDING ARRAYS IN C PROGRAMMING
Introduction to Arrays

 • An array is a collection of variables of the


same data type.
 • Stored in contiguous memory locations.
 • Accessed using an index.
Why Use Arrays?

 • Efficient storage of multiple values.


 • Reduces redundancy in variable declarations.
 • Provides easy access and manipulation of
data.
Declaring and Initializing
Arrays
 Syntax:
 int arr[5]; // Declaration
 int arr[5] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; // Initialization
Accessing Array
Elements
 • Elements are accessed using index numbers.
 • Example: arr[2] returns the 3rd element.
 • Indexing starts from 0 in C.
Types of Arrays (1D &
2D)
 • One-Dimensional Arrays: int arr[5];
 • Two-Dimensional Arrays: int arr[3][3];
 • Multi-dimensional arrays exist but are less
common.
Array Operations

 • Insertion: Adding elements at specific


positions.
 • Deletion: Removing elements.
 • Searching: Finding elements.
 • Sorting: Arranging elements.
Passing Arrays to
Functions
 • Arrays are passed by reference.
 • Example:
 void display(int arr[], int size) {
 for(int i=0; i<size; i++) {
 printf("%d ", arr[i]);
 }
 }
Conclusion and Example
Code
 • Arrays store multiple values efficiently.
 • Used for structured data management.
 • Example:
 int arr[] = {10, 20, 30};
 printf("%d", arr[1]); // Output: 20
