Example

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
	var theArray [3]string
	theArray[0] = "India"  // Assign a value to the first element
	theArray[1] = "Canada" // Assign a value to the second element
	theArray[2] = "Japan"  // Assign a value to the third element

	fmt.Println(theArray[0]) // Access the first element value
	fmt.Println(theArray[1]) // Access the second element valu
	fmt.Println(theArray[2]) // Access the third element valu
}
