Visual C++ Interview Question:

Why Array Index starts from Zero?

Submitted by: Administrator

This boils down to the concept of Binary digits. Take an array size of 64 for example. We start from 0 and end at 63. We require 6 bits.But, if we were to start from 1 and end at 64, we would require 7 bits to store the same number, thus increasing the storage size.
