C++ Programming: Passing Arrays to Functions

Code can be found at pastebin.com/CW...
Concepts:
Syntax for passing arrays to functions.
Why is the whole array not passed to a function? save processor cycles and memory (we often don't need a copy anyway)
What is passed? - the first element of the array.

Omg. You’re a life saver. I’ve learned more from these videos than I have from my professor in the last three weeks when it comes to arrays. I had “ah ha” moments like things were starting to click. Thanks!!

[@iain-duncan]

I spent something like an hour and a half reading about how to do this, and got nowhere. Took me 6 minutes of watching your video to immediately understand. Thank you so much!

[@ZatchBell_ODD]

Respect after 8 years

[@absoftware679]

Thank you for your help, much respect for you. (after 8 years :) )

[@wssz112]

omg!!! read the book for half hour. cant understand at all
watch ur video for 3 minutes totally got it!!!!

[@ElectroHouseR]

Thank You!!! Helped a lot! :D
This 10 minute video helped me more than my stupid 3 hour college class -__-

[@gabriellelopez-herrera820]

You are really good explaining how to write c++. Thank you.

[@flapjack626]

4:59 Just what I needed, thank you!

[@CaptainGibbons]

I'm going to make an A on my program assignment because of these videos. Thank you very much!

u are the man, a real man, man man, a 4 apple, b 4 ball, g 4 ganja(n silence) which is mairijuina
in nepal( g 4 grate=u r that)

When you pass an array, aren't you passing the array name address, not the address of index 0? I believe that is how we are able to set up things such as beginning and ending links. How would we be able to do bounds checking if we didn't actually start before index 0?

[@mohammadkaif5076]

Thanks alot buddy 👍

[@mohdadyg]

Amazing explanation with example. Thanks a lot.

[@lamarts1000]

Great job! Thanks for doing this video

[@programmingelectronics]

Great video - thanks!

[@jinhe4438]

why do i need to specify the address of the first element in an array instead of using the array name when calling the function?

[@3icepwn]

Could someone explain to me what he means by passing first element of the array as a reference. If I have an array - myArray[3] = {5, 3, 2}, the function will only grab first element, so value 5. If that's the case for efficiency sake as copying the whole array is costly, how does the function know to print all the other values in the array?

[@FrancescoSura]

thanks very much my friend

[@Nahom-kn6ph]

What if I don't know the size instead the user enters it?

[@DzahierulAliemy]

Thank you very much sir.

[@teenagemania]

How to return an array values back to the main function.

[@graceghambi5360]

omg gatt exams in 3days time i dont know what amaa write on it.any tips? array pointers.etc anything

[@rayinoz]

thanks for this useful video,

[@ReelLearning]

Thanks!

[@irhcsa]

What if your array is a 3x3?

[@deepakrajak4621]

What about 2D array plzz help and ans

[@foreveralone4813]

what does return -1 means?

[@32kweezy]

+Forever Alone It terminates the build.

[@areesharkon]

thanks for u information about Array

[@swamishekhar8045]

Sir please upload videos regarding this character fuction defining using c++ ..plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[@_AndrewParker]

I was lost from beginning to end lol not your fault though. Programming just isn't meant to make ACTUAL sense anyway.

[@juggernaut2726]

so.. the use of the size in the video is to make the program know that the size of the arrray is 5??
im confused.. isnt the size are made to make the array bigger or what

[@crimerate8719]

Bill Gates is that you ?

[@memoonabatool7904]

Thanks Good job ..

[@cristianrestrepolopez976]

Very sueful

[@ali99_82]

thank you

so 'double rainfall[5];' and 'array rainfall;' are two completely different things both called arrays. Programmers are less logical than politicians

[@TealJosh]

They are not entirely different things. The data in std::array is still stored exactly like in c-style array, but std::array won't forget its size no matter what you do to it. std::array is also always stored into stack, just like c-style array is.
In std::array you can access the raw array like this:
std::array arr;
array.data()[5];
for example, if you copy the data from array.data() to c-style array there's 100% compability.
the .data() function is for combability with api that doesn't support std::array.
Just one thing to add. There's almost zero overhead with std::array compared to c-style array in terms of performance. Only "NEGATIVE" thing about std::array is that you can't dynamically allocate it. std::vector is there for dynamic allocation and it shouldn't be used for anything else.

[@imrank340]

This guy has limited knowledge about C++ programming he processing Array a special class is created C++ runtime library known as Vector which handles passing array to function.
