1). The name of an array stores the __________ of the first array element.

1) memory address

2) value

3) element number

4) subscript

5) None of these

address

a = &a[0]

2) value

The correct answer is 1) memory address.

When an array is created, it is stored in memory as a sequence of contiguous memory locations. The name of the array represents the memory address of the first element in the array.

To obtain the memory address of an array element, you can use the ampersand '&' operator along with the element's name. For example, if you have an array named 'numbers', you can access the memory address of the first element using '&numbers[0]'.
