Declare the array arrays size and the type of elements. All elements must be the same type. Write the element type name, the name of the array variable, then the size enclosed in square brackets ("[]").
int scores[100]; --- array of 100 ints, scores[0] to scores[99]
char name[40]; --- array of 40 chars, name[0] to name[39]
You need three pieces of information to gain access to an array element:
1. The starting address of the array or base address.
2. The array element number or array index you wish to access.
3. The data type size, in bytes, of the data type stored in the array. The size of the data type, along with the index, will be used to calculate an offset into the array from the address of the first element using the following formula:
address of array element = base address + (data type size * array index)

1) A definition of the array MARKS might help answer the question? If you mean the range of values, then it's just ( array size - 1 ) i.e. int marks[100] would have values 0 - 99.
2) To initialise everything to zero, just do
int marks[100] = {0};

lol, you got me on the first one! but if you want to initialise an array to all zeros, initialise it with single zeros:
char cArray[100]={0};

Great, but why would it be necessary to do this??

lol sorry, forgot your question: a loop is used to initialise the whole array to zero, thus even if the array size increases, the main loop code still remains the same. All that would change is the constant iSIZE.
