char that[25];
long float array[5];

int this[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};//notice the curly brackets that 
       //seperate them along with the comma's.
long float array[5] = {0.25,.55,3.0,77}//If the last number
       //is not defined the computer makes it a NULL or zero.

int this[0] = 1;
int this[1] = 2;
int this[2] = 3;
int this[3] = 4;
and you get the point

so then you could use them just as if they were there own 
seperate variables that have the same name with different values.

include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(void)
{

char name[25];
int age[3];
char DOB[6];

cout<<"What is your name friend\n";
cin>>name;
cout<<"Well, how old are you\n";
cin>>age;
cout<<"What is your date of birth\n";
cin>>DOB;
system ("PAUSE");
return 0;
}

OUTPUT
What is your name friend
geo//user input from the cin
Well, how old are you
25//user input from the cin
What is your date of birth
5/13/1999//same here
