Arrays In Python | How To Traverse, Insert, Update, Delete, Search Elements In Python

Array - A data structure which contains similar type of elements

elements - Each item in an array is known as Element

Index - Each location in an array has a numerical index which is used to find the element

# Structure of an Array

Elements   [23, 54, 5, 12, 39, 10]

Index           0    1   2   3    4    5

• By default index start at 0
• Here length of array is 6, i.e. its storing 6 elements

# Array operations:

Traverse -  print all elements of an array

Insert - Add an element in array at given index

Update - Updates an element in array at given index

Search - Searches an element at given index

Delete - Deletes an element at given index

# Array operations in action:

from array import *

myarray = array('i', [10,20,30,40,50])

print("Traversing the array...")
for x in myarray:
 print(x)

print("Accessing array element...")
print (myarray[0])
print (myarray[2])

print("Inserting element in array...")
myarray.insert(1,60)
for x in myarray:
 print(x)

print("Deleting element in array...")
myarray.remove(40)
for x in myarray:
 print(x)

print("Searching index of an element...")
myarray = array('i', [10,20,30,40,50])
print (myarray.index(40))

print("Update an element in array...")
myarray[2] = 80

for x in myarray:
 print(x)
