why array index always starts from zero??
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
It uses 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.

Answer / bijayalaxmi behera.
The index of an array is an OFFSET from the beginning of the
array, multiplied by the width of the array items:
Say an array of integers, 4 bytes long.
Say beginning of array at address 0x1000
First integer address: BaseAddress + (index * len) = 0x1000
+ ( 0 * 4) = 0x1000
Second integer will be at : 0x1000 + ( 1 * 4 ) = 0x1004.
