Arrays are an integral part of almost any programming language along with variables and functions. Many novice programmers are often afraid of arrays. It sounds strange but it is true! I can assure you that they are not scary at all. In fact, arrays are similar to regular variables.

Is it possible that the reason why arrays are seen as something complicated is somehow related to the use of "[" and "]"? These symbols are rarely used anywhere other than in programming when working with arrays, so their location on the keyboard can fade from one's memory and cause discomfort. While in fact, you can easily remember where they are - these two keys are situated next to "Enter" in a logical order: the opening bracket is followed by the closing bracket.
