If you haven't seen C or Java at all before, you probably need to watch at
least some of the introductory C videos.
Please watch the video suggested by probex and
then do the suggested exercises.
2) In any case, please watch the "carray1" videos (arrays in C, part 1) as
listed in probex.
We will discuss
arrays in C in depth in lecture next week; they're more complicated than
illustrated in these introductory videos.
