Often, we have to deal with groups of objects of same type such as names of persons, instrument readings in an experiment, roll numbers of students, and so on. These groups can be conveniently represented as elements of arrays. An array is defined as a sequence of objects of the same data type. All the elements of an array are either of type int (whole numbers), or all of them are of type char, or all of them are of floating decimal point type, etc.

Parallel array in C. Ask Question Asked 6 years, 4 months ago. Active 4 years, 11 months ago. Viewed 6k times 0. I have an assignment where we need to have 2 parallel arrays one is a list of city names and the other is sales amounts. There are only 8 cities to choose from. 2 parallel arrays must be used, initialized as follows: City. Displaying Values: num00: 3 num01: 4 num10: 9 num11: 5 num20: 7 num21: 1. In the above program, we have defined a function named display.The function takes a two dimensional array, int n2 as its argument and prints the elements of the array. While calling the function, we only pass the name of the two dimensional array as the function argument display(num). C Structure Array Example. Here is an example program, demonstrating structure array (array of structure ) in C. This program creates an array of structures evar, reads information into it and displays the information of an employee depending upon the given empno.
An array cannot have a mixture of different data types as its elements. Also, array elements cannot be functions; however, they may be pointers to functions. In computermemory, array elements are stored in a sequence of adjacent memory blocks. Since all the elements of an array are of same data type, the memory blocks allocated to elements of an array are also of same size. Each element of an array occupies one block of memory. The size of memory blocks allocated depends on the data type and it is same as for different data types.
The declaration of array includes the type of array that is the type of value we are going to store in it, the array name and maximum number of elements.

Declaration & Data Types
Arrays have the same data types as variables, i.e., short, long, float etc. They are similar to variables: they can either be declared global or local. They are declared by the given syntax:
The declaration form of one-dimensional array is

The following declares an array called ‘numbers’ to hold 5 integers and sets the first and last elements. C arrays are always indexed from 0. So the first integer in ‘numbers’ array is numbers[0] and the last is numbers[4].
This array contains 5 elements.Any one of these elements may be referred to by giving the name of the array followed by the position number of the particular element in square brackets ([ ]). The first element in every array is the zeroth element. Thus, the first element of array ‘numbers’ is referred to as numbers[ 0 ], the second element of array ‘numbers’ is referred to as numbers[ 1 ], the fifth element of array ‘numbers’ is referred to as numbers[ 4 ], and, in general, the nth element of array ‘numbers’ is referred to as numbers[ n – 1 ].

std::array
is a container that encapsulates fixed size arrays. This container is an aggregate type with the same semantics as a struct holding a C-style arrayT[N] as its only non-static data member. Unlike a C-style array, it doesn't decay to T* automatically. As an aggregate type, it can be initialized with aggregate-initialization given at most
N
initializers that are convertible to T
: std::array<int, 3> a ={1,2,3};.The struct combines the performance and accessibility of a C-style array with the benefits of a standard container, such as knowing its own size, supporting assignment, random access iterators, etc.
std::array
satisfies the requirements of Container and ReversibleContainer except that default-constructed array is not empty and that the complexity of swapping is linear, satisfies the requirements of ContiguousContainer,(since C++17) and partially satisfies the requirements of SequenceContainer.There is a special case for a zero-length array (
N 0
). In that case, array.begin() array.end(), which is some unique value. The effect of calling front() or back() on a zero-sized array is undefined.An array can also be used as a tuple of
N
elements of the same type.

[edit]Iterator invalidation
As a rule, iterators to an array are never invalidated throughout the lifetime of the array. One should take note, however, that during swap, the iterator will continue to point to the same array element, and will thus change its value.
