Study Notes
Array Basics
- Array indexing in C++ starts at 0, with the last element's index being n-1.
- An array can store multiple elements of the same data type.
Two-Dimensional Arrays
- Represented by two indexes: the first indicates the row, and the second indicates the column.
- A 3 x 3 matrix consists of three rows and three columns.
- To print elements of a two-dimensional array, two nested for loops are used, iterating through rows and columns.
Multidimensional Arrays
- The simplest form is a 2-dimensional array, but arrays can have any number of dimensions.
- Syntax for declaration:
Datatype array_name[size1][size2]...[sizeN]. - Example declaration:
int array[5][10][4];representing an array with three dimensions.
Pass an Array to a Function
- Arrays can be passed to functions in two ways:
- By passing a specific element using syntax:
void pass(int arr[10]). - By passing the entire array with unsized syntax:
void pass(int arr[]).
- By passing a specific element using syntax:
- Function can then manipulate or display the array contents.
Understanding Arrays in C++
- Arrays are a derived data type, allowing storage and manipulation of elements of the same data type.
- Can store both fundamental data types (e.g.,
int,char) and derived data types (e.g., pointers, structures). - Values are stored in contiguous memory locations and accessed via their index number.
C++ Standard Library
- Comprises two standard libraries: the old C library (libc.lib) and the C++ library (libcp.lib).
- Libraries are organized into a stream library and the Standard Template Library (STL).
- C++ standard libraries have approximately 51 header files, which must be included for utilizing their functions, variables, and types.
Structure of a C++ Program
- A basic C++ program structure includes:
#includedirectives for necessary libraries.- An
int main()function as the starting point. - The
coutfunction is used for output.
Logical Operators
- Logical operators evaluate expressions to return boolean values (true/false).
- Common logical operations include:
&&(AND): Evaluates to true only if both conditions are true.||(OR): Evaluates to true if at least one condition is true.!(NOT): Negates the value of the condition.
Accessing Array Elements
- Array elements are accessed using their corresponding index number, which can reference any element within the bounds of the array size.
Initializing Arrays
- Arrays can be initialized without specifying their size during declaration.
- Initialization can also occur by directly assigning values to specific indices.
