• Like an array, it is a direct-access container.
The use of an index allows a programmer to select any item in the array without referencing any of the other items.
• An array has a fixed-sized storage structure.  A vector container can be dynamically resized.
• Vector can be passed by value or reference (with &)

• Array name is a pointer that stores the address of the first element of its own array.
• We always pass array by reference without & since array name is a pointer.
• There is no assignment of one array to another.  A loop is required for the assignment of one element to another.
