In this tutorial, you'll learn about arrays and loops in C++. Both of these are very important concepts in programming. In plain English, loop-statements correspond to “Do this action X times.” or “Keep doing that action as long as this condition is true.” But let's learn about arrays first.

Arrays

The variables you saw so far in the course only stored a single number or string. What if we wanted to store multiple numbers or strings? This is exactly what an array does.

Arrays are collections of values of a single type stored together (we cannot have an array containing numbers and strings together). In this article, you will learn to declare, initialize and access array elements.
