Each element of two-dimensional array (with 5 rows and 4 columns) is stored in one memory location. If A(1,1) is at location 2000, what is the address of A(4,4) ? The arrangement is row-major. Use a suitable formula for the calculation.

Answer»

A[5][4] => rows R=5, columns C=4

Let base address be B

Given element width W=1 bytes and A[1][1]=2000

In Row major,

A[I][J]=B+W(C(I=lr)+(j-lc))

where lr=lowest row and lc=lowest column 

A[1][1]=B+W(C(1-0)+(1-0))

2000=B+1(4(1)+1)

2000=B+5

Base Address B=2000-5=1995

Using same formula

 A[4][4]=1995+1(4(4-0)+(4-0)) 

=1995+20

=2015
