A row of boxes with one name

Open

An array holds several values of the same type under one name. You pick the size when you declare it.

Indexes start at 0. For an array of size 5, valid indexes are 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4.

You can initialize values in braces. Use a for loop to walk every element.

int nums[5] = {10, 20, 30, 40, 50};
cout << nums[0] << endl;  // 10
cout << nums[4] << endl;  // 50

for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
    cout << nums[i] << " ";
}
