INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTER PROGRAMMING

1) Concept of Array in C
2) Static and Dynamic array in C
3) Single dimensional and multidimensional array
4) Static and dynamic single and multidimensional array
Concept of array in C
• Array is collection of homogeneous elements in C
• Array is needed to be declared and initialized

Syntax:

Declaration
datatype variable_array[size];

int array[10];
Initialization
Single dimensional array
array[0]=20;
array[1]=30;
array[2]=40;
array[3]=50;
array[4]=60;
array[5]=70;
array[6]=80;
array[7]=90;
array[8]=90;
array[9]=100;

• First element can be accessed array[0]

• Last element can be accessed array[9] or array[size-1]
Average of week’s temperature
#include<stdio.h>
void main(void)
{
int temper[7];
int day,sum;
for(day=0;day<7;day++)
{
printf(“Enter temperature for day %d”,day);
scanf(“%d”,&temper[day]);
}
sum=0;
for(day=0;day<7;day++)
sum+=temper[day];
printf(“The average is %d”,sum/7);
}
Static and Dynamic array in C
Static single dimensional array

It is referring to individual elements of array.

i-e temper[2]

temper 0 1 2 3 4 5 6

temper[2] temper[5]
Dynamic initialization of array
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
#define LIM 7

void main(void)
{
int temper[LIM]={50,25,30,35,40,45,41};
printf("1st day temperature is %d",temper[0]);
printf("2nd day temperature is %d",temper[1]);
printf("3rd day temperature is %d",temper[2]);
printf("4th day temperature is %d",temper[3]);
printf("5th day temperature is %d",temper[4]);
printf("6th day temperature is %d",temper[5]);
printf("7th day temperature is %d",temper[6]);
getch();
}
Multidimensional Array

Syntax:

Datatype variableName[size][size];

• It is known as two dimensional array

• It is also known as array of array
• Matrix example of array
Matrix example of array
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main(void)
{
int matrix[2][2];
printf(“enter 1st row and 1st col”);
scanf(“%d”,&matrix[0][0]);
printf(“enter 1st row and 2nd col”);
scanf(“%d”,&matrix[0][1]);
printf(“enter 2nd row and 1st col”);
scanf(“%d”,&matrix[1][0]);
printf(“enter 2nd row and 2nd col”);
scanf(“%d”,&matrix[1][1]);
}
Multidimensional Array Dynamic Array initialization
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main(void)
{
int matrix[2][2]={{2,3},{4,5}};

0,0 0,1 1,0 1,1

printf(Matrix[0][0]);
printf(Matrix[0][1]);
printf(Matrix[1][0]);
printf(Matrix[1][1]);
}
Matrix [3][2][1]={{{1},{2}},{{3},{4}},{{5},{6}}};
Matrix[2][2][2]={{{1,2},{3,4},{5,6},{7,8}}};
Matrix[2][2][2]={{{1,2},{3,4}},{{5,6},{7,8}}};
