C Program to Insert an Element into an Array

Algorithm:
Step 1: Begin
Step 2: Declare array A[50], and variables N, ITEM, POS, i
Step 3: Input number of elements N
Step 4: Input N elements into the array A
Step 5: Input ITEM (element to insert)
Step 6: Input POS (position where to insert)
Step 7: For i = N - 1 down to POS - 1, do
A[i + 1] = A[i]
Step 8: Set A[POS - 1] = ITEM
Step 9: Increment N = N + 1
Step 10: Display the array after insertion
Step 11: End

C Program:
#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
int A[50], N, ITEM, POS, i;

printf("Enter number of elements: ");


scanf("%d", &N);

printf("Enter %d elements:\n", N);


for (i = 0; i < N; i++) {
scanf("%d", &A[i]);
}

printf("Enter element to insert: ");


scanf("%d", &ITEM);

printf("Enter position to insert (1 to %d): ", N + 1);


scanf("%d", &POS);

// Shift elements to right


for (i = N - 1; i >= POS - 1; i--) {
A[i + 1] = A[i];
}

// Insert the new element


A[POS - 1] = ITEM;
N++;

printf("\nArray after insertion:\n");


for (i = 0; i < N; i++) {
printf("%d ", A[i]);
}

return 0;
}

Sample Output:
Enter number of elements: 5
Enter 5 elements:
10 20 30 40 50
Enter element to insert: 25
Enter position to insert (1 to 6): 3

Array after insertion:


10 20 25 30 40 50
