1.1 Arrays in Data Structure | Declaration,
Initialization, Memory representation


In this video, we'll discuss how data is represented in memory, and the
need for arrays. Faerie explains the need for arrays as we often have to
process large amounts of data, and arrays allow us to store multiple
values under one variable name. We'll cover how arrays can be declared
and how data can be stored in memory. The declaration of arrays is
language-specific, and in this video, we'll consider the syntax in the C
language. The elements of the array are stored in consecutive or
continuous locations, with their index starting from zero. The size of the
array cannot be changed at runtime. We'll discuss how data is stored in
memory, with the binary form of the data being converted and then
stored. The formula to calculate the address of an element is the base
address plus the index value multiplied by the size of the data type. We'll
cover how to initialize the array at runtime using loops or predefined
functions, and how to take data from the user and store it in an array. In
the next video, we'll discuss how to insert data, traverse arrays, and
perform different operations on 1D arrays. We'll also cover 2D arrays and
how to access their values.

be stored in memory now as you can see theory is stored in 20 bytes
memory starting from the 0th byte and ending at the 19th byte. So
theory is stored in consecutive bytes in memory. Now If I want to access
any of these elements, I will use the indexing operator, which is the
square bracket []. So I can say here [0] that is the first element of this
array. Now if I want to access any other element. I will use the indexing
operator again and this time I will use the plus sign (+). So I can say here
[1] that is the second element of this array and so on until I reach the
last element of this array, which is [19]. So this is how you can access
any of these elements of the array using the indexing operator [] and
then using the plus sign (+) see now Another way to initialize an array at
runtime is by using a pointer variable. See now suppose we have a
pointer variable called p that points to an area in memory that contains
an array called [UNK] fine now at runtime. We can say p->elements[0]
that is referencing the first element of [UNK] See now Another way to
initialize an array at runtime is by using a const pointer variable. See now
suppose we have a const pointer variable called p that points to an area
in memory that contains an array called [UNK] fine now at runtime. We
can say const p->elements[0] that is referencing the first element of
[UNK]. See now Another way to initialize an array at runtime is. a
dynamic pointer variable see now suppose we have a dynamic pointer
variable called P that points to an area in memory that contains an array
