Elements of an array are stored _______ in memory.

Skill/Topic: Array
A) Periodical
B) Sequentially
C) Parallely
D) None of the above
Explanation: Elements of an array are stored sequentially in memory. For example,First, create an array called letters and assign characters to it, as shown here: char letters[3];letters[0] = 'C';letters[1] = 'B';letters[2] = 'A';In this, each letter appears one after the other in memory. This is because these values are assigned to elements of an array, and each array element is placed sequentially in memory

not necessarily in consecutive memory. For a large array compiler may choose different locations for 2 or more parts of an array. However the compiler will see to it that you get appropriate element by using index and it takes you to appropriate address when you use pointer arithmetic. But you cannot guarantee that the entire array is stored in consecutive locations.
