    The document discusses complex data structures in Pascal programming, including parallel arrays, arrays with a single index, and multidimensional arrays. It provides examples of using dual arrays with a single index to solve problems, how data types and structures are related, and how arrays can have other array types as components. Multidimensional arrays are introduced as arrays with more than one index that can be used to reference elements like cells in a spreadsheet.

    Complex Array Structures


    Pascal Programming

     Complex solutions, using Pascal or any


    other language, need to be reduced
    from the abstract to more concrete
    statements.
     The example in the text of parallel
    arrays to award a score and letter grade
    illustrates the validity of the observation.

    Score Index 2 Grade

    Pascal Programming

     The solution to the problem arises from


    dual arrays with a single index.
     Thus, data type notation and data
    structure become tightly related.
     Data structure– any construct to store
    and manipulate data in a program or
    algorithm.
    Pascal Programming

     In this solution, each array type is a


    data type.
     The data structure combines the two
    arrays.
     With these examples we know that
    available structures can include arrays
    of arrays and parallel arrays.
    Pascal Programming

     Complex solutions require complex data


    structures.
     An array’s component type can be
    comprised of any data type . . .so, it can
    be an array type. Thus we have an
    array or array types.
     Consider a spreadsheet example . . .

    2A 2B 2C

    3A 3B 3C
    Pascal Programming

     If we substitute Sales for 1-3 and


    Territory for A-C, we reference 2C as …
    – Sales [2] Territory
     Within the territory we have a monthly
    array of sales.
     This illustrates the use of an array of
    array type.
    Pascal Programming

     An array with more than one index is


    called a multidimensional array.
     The declaration follows the form use to
    declare a simple or one dimensional
    array.
     Multidimensional arrays have more than
    one index but they have similar other
    properties.
