# Arrays Quiz ## What's the length of this array literal? ```go gadgets := [...]string{"Mighty Mouse", "Amazing Keyboard", "Shiny Monitor"} ``` 1. 0 2. 1 3. 2 4. 3 *CORRECT* > **4:** Yes! There are 3 elements in the element list. So, Go sets the length of the array to 3. > ## What's the type and length of this array literal? ```go gadgets := [...]string{} ``` 1. [0]string and 0 *CORRECT* 2. [0]string{} and 0 3. [1]string and 1 4. [1]string{} and 1 > **1:** Yes! There are no elements in the element list. So, Go sets the length of the array to 0. > ## What does this program print? ```go package main import "fmt" func main() { gadgets := [3]string{"Confused Drone"} fmt.Printf("%q\n", gadgets) } ``` 1. [3]string{"Confused Drone", "", ""} 2. [1]string{"Confused Drone"} 3. ["Confused Drone" "" ""] *CORRECT* 4. ["Confused Drone"] > **1:** %q verb doesn't print the type of an array. > > **2, 4:** Array's length cannot change depending on the elements. > > **3:** Yes! Go sets the uninitialized elements to their zero values. > ## Are these arrays comparable? ```go gadgets := [3]string{"Confused Drone"} gears := [...]string{"Confused Drone"} fmt.Println(gadgets == gears) ``` 1. Yes, because they have identical types and elements 2. No, because their types are different *CORRECT* 3. No, because their elements are different > **2:** Yes! gadget's type is [3]string whereas gears's type is [1]string. > ## What does this program print? ```go gadgets := [3]string{"Confused Drone", "Broken Phone"} gears := gadgets gears[2] = "Shiny Mouse" fmt.Printf("%q\n", gadgets) ``` 1. ["Confused Drone" "Broken Phone" "Shiny Mouse"] 2. ["Confused Drone" "Broken Phone" ""] *CORRECT* 3. ["" "" "Shiny Mouse"] 4. ["" "" ""] > **2:** Yes! When you assign an array, Go creates a copy of the original array. So, gadgets and gears arrays are not connected. Changing one of them won't effect the other one. > ## What's the type of the digits array? ```go digits := [...][5]string{ { "## ", " # ", " # ", " # ", "###", }, [5]string{ "###", " #", "###", " #", "###", }, } ``` 1. [...][5]string 2. [2][2]string 3. [2][5]string *CORRECT* 4. [5][5]string > **3:** Awesome! There are two inner arrays, so the outer array's length becomes 2. Also note that, `[5]string` in front of the second element is unnecessary. > ## What does this program print? ```go rates := [...]float64{ 5: 1.5, 2.5, 0: 0.5, } fmt.Printf("%#v\n", rates) ``` 1. [7]float64{0.5, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1.5, 2.5} *CORRECT* 2. [7]float64{1.5, 2.5, 0.5, 0, 0, 0, 0} 3. [3]float64{1.5, 2.5, 0.5} 4. [3]float64{0.5, 2.5, 1.5} > **1:** That's right! For the explanation check out the example in the course repository here: https://github.com/inancgumus/learngo/tree/master/14-arrays/11-keyed-elements/06-keyed-and-unkeyed > ## Are these arrays equal? ```go type three [3]int nums := [3]int{1, 2, 3} nums2 := three{1, 2, 3} fmt.Println(nums == nums2) ``` **Note:** _To solve this question you need to watch the comparison and unnamed types lectures._ 1. Yes, because they have identical underlying types and elements *CORRECT* 2. No, because their types are different 3. No, because their length is different > **1:** Yes! They both have the same underlying types: [3]int > ## Are these array variables equal? ```go type ( threeA [3]int threeB [3]int ) nums := threeA{1, 2, 3} nums2 := threeA(threeB{1, 2, 3}) fmt.Println(nums == nums2) ``` **Note:** _To solve this question you need to the watch comparison and unnamed types lectures._ 1. Yes, because they have identical underlying types and elements *CORRECT* 2. No, because their types are different 3. No, because their length is different > **1:** Yes! Actually, arrays have different types, so normally they're not comparable. However, when you convert `threeB{1, 2, 3}` array to `threeA` type, they become comparable. >
