In this blog post, we will be discussing the various operations that can be performed on 1D arrays in data structures. We have already covered the fundamentals of arrays, including why they are needed, how to declare them, and their memory representation in a previous post. Today, we will focus on how to traverse an array, how to insert data into an array, and the three types of insertion (at the beginning, at the end, or at a specific position). The most important operations we will cover are a...

An array is a collection of items stored at contiguous memory locations. The idea is to store multiple items of the same type together. This makes it easier to calculate the position of each element by simply adding an offset to a base value, i.e., the memory location of the first element of the array (generally denoted by the name of the array).
