The lowest subscript of an array in C, or C++ is 0.
Subscripts are used to identify the elements in an array, where the first element has subscript 0. Thus an array of n elements has subscripts in the range 0 to n-1. Each element may itself be an array, thus allowing multi-dimensional arrays. The subscript may be a constant or a variable. However, when declaring a static array, the subscript must be a constant. Constants include literal constants as well as named constants. A subscripted variable is simply an array or a datatype that can be divided into an array. For instance, a 32-bit int can be treated just as if it were an array of two 16-bit shorts or four 1-byte chars. Thus in the 32-bit int array, int i[10], i is a subscripted variable where i[0] is the first integer and i[9] is the last. If we then say char*c=&i, c would allow us to treat i as if it were a subscripted variable with 40 char elements (c[0] to c[39]).
yes
A multidimensional array in C or C++ is simply an array of arrays, or an array of an array of arrays, etc. for however many dimensions you want. int a; // not an array int a[10]; // ten int a's int a[10][20]; // twenty int a[10]'s, or 200 int a's int a[10][20][30]; // and so on and so forth...
int array[10] = {...}; for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i) { if (i % 2 == 0) array[i] += 5; else array[i] -= 10; }
A std::string is an object that encapsulates an array of type char whereas a C-style string is a primitive array with no members. A std::string is guaranteed to be null-terminated but a C-style string is not.
Subscripts have not changed since C++ evolved from C. Given an array x, the subscript x[n] returns a reference to the n-1th element of x. Note that Balaguruswamy is a book writer, he has not released any edition of C++.
You can access the array-element via index (or subscript), but it is not possible the other way around.

You cannot add elements to a fixed array in C or C++. If, however, the array is declared as a pointer to an array, you can add elements by allocating a new array, copying/adding elements as needed, reassigning the new array to the pointer, and deallocating the original array.

No.

Heres something i whipped up in a hurry... This uses the Bubble Sort method found (related links) #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main(int argc, const char* argv) { int arraysize = 5; //Unsorted array size int array [] = { 5, 3, 4, 2, 1 }; //The array of numbers itself //Display the unsorted array cout << "Before: {"; for (int c=0; c <= arraysize; c++) { cout << array[c]; if (c != arraysize) { cout << ","; } } cout << "}" << endl; //Acctually sort the array int tmp=0; //Used for swaping values for (int loop=0; loop <= (arraysize - 1); loop++) { for (int c=0; c <= (arraysize - 1); c++) //The sort loop { if (array[c] > array[c + 1]) { //Swaps the two values in the array tmp = array[c]; array[c] = array[c + 1]; array[c + 1] = tmp; //Cleanup tmp = 0; } } } //Display the sorted array cout << "After: {"; for (int c=0; c <= arraysize; c++) { cout << array[c]; if (c != arraysize) { cout << ","; } } cout << "}" << endl; return 0; }
