What is an Array?
Explore the essential concepts of arrays in C#, covering one-dimensional and dynamic arrays, indexing, memory allocation, and practical examples to build a strong foundation in data structures.
In this lesson, you will revise the basic concepts of arrays and go through some practical examples to understand this simple yet powerful data structure.
Introduction
An array is a collection of items of the same type stored contiguously in memory. It is the simplest and most widely used data structure. Most of the other data structures like stack and queues can be implemented using the array structure. This makes the array one of the central building blocks of all data structures.
Look at the figure below; you have made a simple array with four elements. Each item in ...
