Arrays are variables that hold more than one value at a time. Arrays are organized like a table. Let’s consider a spreadsheet as an example. A spreadsheet acts like a two-dimen- sional array. It has both rows and columns, and an individual cell in the spreadsheet can be located according to its row and column address. An array behaves the same way. An array has cells, which are called तत्व, and each element contains data. An individual array element is accessed using an address called an अनुक्रमणिका or सबस्क्रिप्ट.

Ar- ray support first appeared in खूब जोर से पीटना version 2. The original Unix shell program, sh, did not support arrays at all.
