C initialize an array

  • Array is collection of similar data items.
  • An array can hold multiple values of same type of data
  • In c programming language an array can be declared as datatype arrayName [ arraySize ]; 
  • In c , while declaring an array we need to specify type of array , name of array and size of the array.
  • One can directly initialize an array while declaring itself with some values
  • int arrayVariable[2]=[10,20];
  • int count[]=[1,2,3,4,5]
  • directly initialize an array of particular : count[3]=10
  • Let us discuss about how to initialize an array with some default values.
  • Using for loop or while loop we can iterate an array and by accessing each index we can assign values 
  • If we are not initializing an array and try to print all the values then it will print some garbage values.
  • c initialize array of ints

#1Write a C program to declare an array and print default values
  1. #include
  2. // write a c program to explain how to initialize an array
  3. int main () {

  4.    int number[ 15 ]; 
  5.    int i,k;
  6.    
  7.    
  8.    for (k = 0; k
  9.       printf("Array[%d] = %d\n", k, number[k] );
  10.    }
  11.  
  12.   getch();
  13. }


Output:
  1. Array[0] = -1551778920
  2. Array[1] = -2
  3. Array[2] = 1971427546
  4. Array[3] = 1971495162
  5. Array[4] = 5189464
  6. Array[5] = 5181048
  7. Array[6] = 2686776
  8. Array[7] = 1971494685
  9. Array[8] = 0
  10. Array[9] = 0
  11. Array[10] = 2686832
  12. Array[11] = 200
  13. Array[12] = 192
  14. Array[13] = 7161720
  15. Array[14] = 48


#2 write a C Program to initialize an array values to 0 (zeros).



Output:
  1. Array[0] = 0
  2. Array[1] = 0
  3. Array[2] = 0
  4. Array[3] = 0
  5. Array[4] = 0
  6. Array[5] = 0
  7. Array[6] = 0
  8. Array[7] = 0
  9. Array[8] = 0
  10. Array[9] = 0
  11. Array[10] = 0
  12. Array[11] = 0
  13. Array[12] = 0
  14. Array[13] = 0
  15. Array[14] = 0
