Arrays, Lists, Maps, and Loops
Learn the distinction between Python’s mutable lists and Java’s fixed-size arrays, emphasizing their flexibility and constraints.
Arrays
An array is a type of data structure that holds a number of elements of the same type sequentially in adjacent memory addresses. It provides a convenient way to access and manipulate multiple values of the same type as a single entity.
In Python, arrays are implemented using lists, which are powerful objects overflowing with useful properties. Lists in Python are regarded as mutable arrays that can grow or shrink in real-time when new elements are added or removed.
