What is an Array?

An array is a special variable, which can hold more than one value, at a time.

If you have a list of items (a list of car names, for example), storing the cars in single variables could look like this:

cars1="Saab";

cars2="Volvo";

cars3="BMW";

Access an Array

You can refer to a particular element in an array by referring to the name of the array and the index number. The index number starts at 0.

Modify Values in an Array

To modify a value in an existing array, just add a new value to the array with a specified index number: myCars[0]="Opel";
