Arrays An array is an ordered collection of data values of the same type. Ordered: We can refer to the elements by their position Ist,2nd,... Same type: All ints,all doubles,all strings

Some other languages let the programmer decide what the first index will be,but it is always 0 in C++.

Indexing Problem Indexing Problem • Any integer variable i can be used as an array index. C compilers do not check to see that the index value is valid for the given array. If i here was 523, the statement scores[i] = 100; would store 100 somewhere, but it wouldn’t be in the array! Doubtless an error would occur, but maybe not till later
