How is Array stored in Memory in Python?

How is Array stored in Memory in C#?

  • In JavaScript, arrays are implemented as objects.
  • JavaScript are dynamic and can hold elements of different types.
  • Elements are stored in a way that allows for random access, but they are not necessarily stored in contiguous memory.

Javascript




var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
 
// Memory representation: Not necessarily contiguous due to object properties.
 






                        









													
													
												

												
											

											
											

												
How Array is stored in different programming languages?

												
												

													
													
The memory representation of an array mainly depends on various programming languages like C, C++, Java, Python, JavaScript, C#, and PHP. So we look at how an array is stored in several popular programming languages :
