referencing dynamic arrays with tables

tutorial: referencing dynamic arrays with tables in programming

dynamic arrays are a powerful feature in programming that allows you to manage arrays that can grow or shrink in size during runtime. this tutorial will cover how to reference dynamic arrays using tables, with examples in python and javascript.

what are dynamic arrays?

dynamic arrays are arrays that can change in size during program execution. unlike static arrays, which have a fixed size determined at compile time, dynamic arrays can be resized as needed. this is particularly useful when the number of elements is not known in advance.

tables and dynamic arrays

in programming, a table can be thought of as a data structure that organizes data in a grid format (similar to a spreadsheet). in many programming languages, tables can be represented using associative arrays, objects, or dictionaries.

example in python

let's start with an example in python, which uses lists as dynamic arrays and dictionaries as tables.

step 1: create a dynamic array

step 2: create a table

step 3: reference dynamic arrays with the table

complete example

example in javascript

now, let’s see how to achieve similar functionality in javascript.

step 1: create a dynamic array

step 2: create a table

step 3: reference dynamic arrays with the table

complete example

conclusion

in this tutorial, we learned how to create and reference dynamic arrays using tables in both python and javascript. dynamic arrays are essential for scenarios where the size of the array is not known at compile time, and using tables allows for organized data representation.

feel free to expand on this by adding more functionality, such as removing items from the dynamic arrays or implementing more complex data structures!
