DYNamic ARrays - DYNAR

Dynar is a program/ system that enables/ enhances the usability of dynamic resizable arrays in C.

Syntax

Declaration of the dynamic array base data types (do this outside all functions, preferably just below the #include lines) (must be any combination of the following)

  int, float, char, double

For example, you may want float and int dynamic arrays so you can type the following.

  use dynar [float, int];

Declaring a dynamic resizable array

  dynar float constants;

Initialization for the first time can be done in bulk as:

  constants = {3.14, 1.618};

Alternatively, elements can always be manually entered:

  constants[2] = 6.28;

There is an inbuilt length variable that can be accessed to retrieve the length of the array at any time

// The length can be accessed by using 
   constants.len

An example use case:

  for(int i = 0; i < constants.len; i++) {
      printf("%0.3f\n", constants[i]);
  }

Please refrain from using the length during input operations as it changes dynamically and running a loop such as the one below as it will most probably cause the program to go into an infinite loop on execution.

  for(int i = constants.len; i < constants.len * 8; i++) {
          constants[i] = (float)i;
  }

The list of functions that go along with these dynamic arrays that you can use are:

1. ARRAY_NAME.pop() //removes the last element in the array - the (length-1)th element

2. ARRAY_NAME.push(value) //adds the "value" to the end of the array

3. ARRAY_NAME.remove(index) //deletes the value stored at that index in the array.

4. ARRAY_NAME.insert(value, index)

5. ARRAY_NAME.removeN(value, N) // deletes the first N instances of the "value" from the array.

If you want any particular feature to be added to the next release, please let me know !
