# Array ### What is an Array: - Array is a collection of objects or things of a similar type. - Arrays are one of the most used data structures in the world of computer science. ### Properties of an Array: - Array can only store data of the same type. - Elements of an array are located in a contiguous fashion. - Each element of an array has a unique index. - The size of an array is predefined and cannot be modified. ### Types of Array: 1. One Dimensionsal - Example ```python array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] ``` 2. Multi-Dimensional - Example ```python array = [[1, 2 , 3], [4, 5, 6]] ``` ### Array operations. 1. Create O(1) 1. Insertion O(1) 1. Traversal O(n), where n = array length 1. Accessing an element O(1) 1. Deletion O(1) `Please note, the time complexity mentioned above is for a One-Dimensional Array.` More about arrays can be found [here.](https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/introduction-to-arrays/)
