Array Declaration and Access

What is the purpose of declaring an array before using it in a program?

To ensure the elements are of the same data type
To reserve memory locations for the array elements (correct)
To allocate memory locations for the array in a non-consecutive manner
To specify the range of the array elements

In C/C++ programming, what is the correct syntax for declaring an array with 'n' elements?

data_type n array_name[];
n array_type array_name[];
array_name[data_type n];
array_type array_name[n]; (correct)

What is the range of an array with 'n' elements?

1 to n
0 to n
0 to (n-1) (correct)
1 to (n-1)

How can array elements be initialized at compile time?

Using type array_name[size]={ list of values}; (C)
