📖 LESSON

Array Manipulation

Arrays are contiguous blocks of memory. Manipulation involves basic operations like inserting, deleting, and updating elements.

Traversal

O(N)

Visiting every element once.

Insertion

O(N)

Shifting elements to make space.

Deletion

O(N)

Shifting elements to fill the gap.

Access

O(1)

Direct access via index.

Because array elements are stored together in memory, they benefit from **CPU caching**, making traversals extremely fast compared to other data structures like linked lists.
