What is a zero based array in programming?

Answer 1

It means the first element of the array is at index 0.

Traditional mathematical notation is that the first element in an array is element #1, and that's the way we refer to them as well ("first" element, not "zeroth" element).

However, many programming languages, including C and its derivative languages (C++, C#, Java) use zero-based arrays. For example:

int array[] = new int[] { 40, 356, 102 };
System.out.println("" + array[1]);

... would print "356", since the 0-index element in the array is the first one, and the element at index 1 is the SECOND element in the array.

Answer 4

An array is a structure which holds elements.

To access an element, you specify the index of the element.

In A Zero based array, the first element has a zero index, the second a 1 index and so on.

for( int i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++) That's the workhorse of programming. An empty array is [null] and so we have to have 1 less than the length(). That, and my instructor used to yell out to the class "Because godd**n programmers don't know how to count!"
