About this event

This lecture explores arrays and strings in the C programming language, focusing on how data is stored and manipulated in contiguous memory. Students will learn the fundamentals of array indexing, iteration patterns, and memory organization while understanding how strings are represented as NUL-terminated character arrays.

The lecture also introduces common algorithms used with arrays and strings, including searching and traversal techniques. Special attention is given to programming errors such as off-by-one mistakes and buffer overflows, highlighting their impact on software reliability and security.
