size of array in c code example

Example 1: size of an array c

int a[20];
int length;
length = sizeof(a) / sizeof(int);

Example 2: array length c

int prices[5] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };

int size = sizeof prices / sizeof prices[0];

printf("%u", size); /* 5 */

Example 3: size of an array c

int a[]= { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 };
int length = sizeof(a) / sizeof(a[0]); //return 7

Example 4: get length of array in c

int a[17];
size_t n = sizeof(a)/sizeof(a[0]);

Example 5: size of an array in c

size_t n = sizeof myArray / sizeof *myArray;

Example 6: increase size of array in c

#include <stdio.h>#include <stdlib.h>int main(){//a pointer to dynamically allocated memory from the heap is returned.	int *a = (int *) malloc(20 * sizeof(int));for(int i = 0; i < 20; i++)a[i] = i + 1;printf("\nThe contents of the array are: \n");for(int i = 0; i < 20; i++)printf("%d\t", a[i]);realloc(a, 40);for(int
