How do I send an array to a child component in React?

I want to send the array inputArrival and inputBurst to the child component Barchart.js. But whenever I do this only the first element which I enter is being sent and not the other items. Basically what I want is that as the data is being entered into the Entrytable.js it is instantly reflected. EntryTable.js

import React,{useState} from 'react';
import './tableEdit.css';
import Barchart from './Barchart';

const EntryTable = (props) => {
    const entry = props.numOfEntries;
    const [inputArrival, setInputArrival] = useState(Array(entry).fill(""));
    const [inputBurst, setInputBurst] = useState(Array(entry).fill(""));
  
  
    function changeArrival(index) {     
      return (e) => {
       setInputArrival((values) =>
          values.map((value, i) => (i === index ? e.target.value : value)));};
    }
    function changeBurst(index) {
      return (e) => {  
     setInputBurst((values) =>
          values.map((value, i) => (i === index ? e.target.value : value))         
        );
      };
    }
    const ArrayEntry = Array.from({ length: entry}).map((_, i) => (
      <tr key={i}>
          <td >P{i}</td>
          <td >
            <input            
              type="number"
              value={inputArrival[i]}
              onChange={changeArrival(i)}             
            />
            ms
          </td>
          <td >
            <input            
              type="number"
              value={inputBurst[i]}
              onChange={changeBurst(i)}            
            />
            ms
          </td>
        </tr>
    ));
     return (
      <div  c>
        <table>
          <thead>
            <tr>
              <th>Process</th>
              <th>Arrival Time</th>
              <th>Burst Time</th>
            </tr>
          </thead>
          <tbody>{ArrayEntry}</tbody>
        </table>
        <button>Click Me</button>
        <Barchart selected_val={entry} arrivalArray={inputArrival} ></Barchart>
      </div>
    );
  };
export default EntryTable

Barchart.js

import React,{useState,useEffect} from 'react'
const Barchart=(props)=>{    
  const sel = props.selected_val; 
 var ar1=props.arrivalArray;
 console.log(ar1);
}export default Barchart;

Ran your code and even though you have some improvements to add to it, other than this it seems to work.

enter image description here

The only difference is returning something in Barchart.js. Maybe try to return null in Barchart.js, it might throw a silent error.

I recommend using a linter also for code styling.

As far as i got your question, im not sure where is the problem:

  • What ive done?

First: As Tasos said converted all the variables to let;

Second: Assigned a value of 5 for the const entry image here

Third: Added one more prop for the other array of data you want, and pass it to the child component Barchart.js; image here

And this is the result: image here
