why index value is starts from 0 in array

Hey buddy !


Please if you can just refer this link and read the comments you really get to know.

Hi,

Arrays in General :-

C# arrays are zero indexed; that is, the array indexes start at zero. Arrays in C# work similarly to how arrays work in most other popular languages There are, however, a few differences that you should be aware of.

When declaring an array, the square brackets ([]) must come after the type, not the identifier. Placing the brackets after the identifier is not legal syntax in C#.
int[] table; // not int table[];

Another detail is that the size of the array is not part of its type as it is in the C language. This allows you to declare an array and assign any array of int objects to it, regardless of the array's length.
int[] numbers; // declare numbers as an int array of any size
numbers = new int[10]; // numbers is a 10-element array
numbers = new int[20]; // now it's a 20-element array

Declaring Arrays:-

C# supports single-dimensional arrays, multidimensional arrays (rectangular arrays), and array-of-arrays (jagged arrays). The following examples show how to declare different kinds of arrays:
Single-dimensional arrays:
int[] numbers;
Multidimensional arrays:
string[,] names;
Array-of-arrays (jagged):
byte[][] scores;
Declaring them (as shown above) does not actually create the arrays. In C#, arrays are objects (discussed later in this tutorial) and must be instantiated. The following examples show how to create arrays:
Single-dimensional arrays:
int[] numbers = new int[5];
