Chapter 7, Problem 81RQE

Program Plan Intro

Size declarator:

An array is a variable which stores multiple values of same types of data; the array values are stored in continuous memory locations.

Syntax of an array:

Datatype array-name [size-declarator];

Consider the following array definition:

//Declaration of array

int values[5];

In the above example, “int” represents the data type of the array, “values[]” is the array name and the number inside the brackets is the size declaratory of the array.

• This size declarator must be an integer value which represents the number of elements that the array holds with it.
• In the above example code, it is clear that the array values hold five elements with it.
