An array is a group of related data items that are stored with single name.
For example, int student[30]; //student is an array name that holds 30 collection of data items with a single variable name
Operations of array
Searching − It is used to find whether particular element is present or not
Sorting − It helps in arranging the elements in an array either in ascending or descending order.
Traversing − It processes every element in an array sequentially.
Inserting − It helps in inserting the elements in an array.
Deleting − It helps in deleting an element in an array.
The logic to perform all arithmetic operations in an array is as follows −
for(i = 0; i < size; i ++){ add [i]= A[i] + B[i]; sub [i]= A[i] - B[i]; mul [i]= A[i] * B[i]; div [i] = A[i] / B[i]; mod [i] = A[i] % B[i]; }
Program
Following is the C program for arithmetic operations on arrays −
#include<stdio.h> int main(){ int size, i, A[50], B[50]; int add[10], sub[10], mul[10], mod[10]; float div[10]; printf("enter array size:\n"); scanf("%d", &size); printf("enter elements of 1st array:\n"); for(i = 0; i < size; i++){ scanf("%d", &A[i]); } printf("enter the elements of 2nd array:\n"); for(i = 0; i < size; i ++){ scanf("%d", &B[i]); } for(i = 0; i < size; i ++){ add [i]= A[i] + B[i]; sub [i]= A[i] - B[i]; mul [i]= A[i] * B[i]; div [i] = A[i] / B[i]; mod [i] = A[i] % B[i]; } printf("\n add\t sub\t Mul\t Div\t Mod\n"); printf("------------------------------------\n"); for(i = 0; i <size; i++){ printf("\n%d\t ", add[i]); printf("%d \t ", sub[i]); printf("%d \t ", mul[i]); printf("%.2f\t ", div[i]); printf("%d \t ", mod[i]); } return 0; }
Output
When the above program is executed, it produces the following result −
Run 1: enter array size: 2 enter elements of 1st array: 23 45 enter the elements of 2nd array: 67 89 add sub Mul Div Mod ------------------------------------ 90 -44 1541 0.00 23 134 -44 4005 0.00 45 Run 2: enter array size: 4 enter elements of 1st array: 89 23 12 56 enter the elements of 2nd array: 2 4 7 8 add sub Mul Div Mod ------------------------------------ 91 87 178 44.00 1 27 19 92 5.00 3 19 5 84 1.00 5 64 48 448 7.00 0
