Complete this sentence:The index of an array starts with ____
A
0
B
1
C
-1
D
2
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In computer science, array indices usually start at 0 in modern programming languages, so computer programmers might use zeroth in situations where others might use first, and so forth.

Detailed explanation-2: -Here, arr denotes the address of the first array element or the 0 index element. So *(arr+i) means the element at i distance from the first element of the array. So array index starts from 0 as initially i is 0 which means the first element of the array.

Detailed explanation-3: -Zero-based array indexing is a way of numbering the items in an array such that the first item of it has an index of 0, whereas a one-based array indexed array has its first item indexed as 1. Zero-based indexing is a very common way to number items in a sequence in today’s modern mathematical notation.

Detailed explanation-4: -The indexes of elements in a Java array always start with 0 and continue to the number 1 below the size of the array. Thus, in the example above with an array with 10 elements the indexes go from 0 to 9.
