Arrays are ways of having a block of memory allocated to a single variable type, this allows for holding the national lottery numbers within an array of 6 instead of actually having 6 different variables.<\/p>\n
e.g. <\/p>\n
\r\nint value1 = 1;\r\nint value2 = 2;\r\nint value3 = 3;\r\nint value4 = 4;\r\nint value5 = 5;\r\nint value6 = 6;\r\n<\/pre>\nand instead you could just have<\/p>\n
\r\nint values[6] = {1,2,3,4,5,6};\r\n<\/pre>\nthis is a example of how to manipulate the array structure.<\/p>\n
\r\n#include \r\n\r\nint main()\r\n{\r\n \/\/ array structure\r\n int values[5]; \/\/ set asside 5 blocks of int(eger) size of continuous memory blocks\r\n \/\/ the actual points into the array are 0-4 (e.g. 5 points but start at 0)\r\n \r\n int values2[6] = {0,1,2,3,4,5}; \/\/ exmaple of settings the values on define time.\r\n \r\n \/\/ direct assigning the values.\r\n values[0] = 5;\r\n values[1] = 4;\r\n values[2] = 3;\r\n values[3] = 2;\r\n values[4] = 1;\r\n \r\n \/\/could use a position pointer\r\n for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)\r\n {\r\n \/\/ display the values\r\n std::cout << \"Value \" << i << \" : \" << values[i] << \"\\n\";\r\n }\r\n\r\n int *int1p = &values[0];\r\n std::cout << \"Pointer value = \" << *int1p << \"\\n\";\r\n int1p++; \/\/ increament the pointer to the next part of the array\r\n std::cout << \"Pointer value = \" << *int1p << \"\\n\";\r\n return 0;\r\n}\r\n<\/pre>\nsave as arrays.cpp and then compile the program, the result once executed will be <\/p>\n
\r\nValue 0 : 5\r\nValue 1 : 4\r\nValue 2 : 3\r\nValue 3 : 2\r\nValue 4 : 1\r\nPointer value = 5\r\nPointer value = 4\r\n<\/pre>\nand include three different ways to access the values within the array.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
