Arrays are useful to represent vector, matrix and other multi-dimensional data.
Vector is a one dimensional (1-D) data structure that can be used to store list of items like characters, numbers.
Arrays are useful when same operations are to be performed on various elements of the similar type.
Creating an array is a two step process:
1. Declare an array object
2. Create an array object An array object can be created in two ways:
1. Using new operator and specifying the size
2. Directly initializing the content of array
To declare a 1-D array we use a pair of square brackets [ ] after array name or after data type.
