Important News (SiteOpia Customers): SiteOpia decided to sell hosting business to Pickaweb with effect from 29th May 2020

Due to this business transition, Pickaweb is migrating DNS records from SiteOpia to their DNS hosting platform (Pickaweb), and so you may experience the outage while DNS propagation is going on.

There are many SiteOpia customers reported that, their DNS and other services hosted on SiteOpia has been effected due to this.

What should you do?

Interactively work with the Pickaweb Support guys and make sure all the records in your DNS control panel are correctly updated (verify all the records one by one).

So what changes (as per communication from SiteOpia to its customers)? 

There’s a little administration that will change - in particular your billing arrangements with SiteOpia. From the 29th May, you will be billed directly by Pickaweb. They will notify you in advance of any billing & you will be able to login to their billing area to make payment & download your invoices.

Pickaweb will also migrate your hosting and email from our servers to theirs. They will notify you in advance & make all of the necessary changes to your domain's Nameservers to minimize any interruption to your service.


Good Luck Friends! Hope to get back to the normal business soon.

What is an Array? Why do we use it?

Array: Array is a Data Structure defined by the programmers/users that store data items of the same type sequentially i.e. an array contains data items of the same type and all these items are stored sequentially in memory. It is one of the most common user-defined data types used by the programmers.

In this, size of the array needs to be specified during array initialization.


To access data item at any index, we use array indexing like:

Syntax

type Array-name[index] // Array-name to be declared by user and type is a type of data to be stored

To access data item at index 2, we write:

type Array-name[2].


Array is widely used by the programmers because:

It is easy to implement.

As data items are stored sequentially and so can be accessed by array indexing in O(1) time complexity.


Note: here type refers to what type of data to be stored in the array.


Cheers! Please let me know if you have any queries or feedback on this.
