How do I find the length of an array?

Question

Is there a way to find how many values an array has? Detecting whether or not I\'ve reached the end of an array would also work.

Answer 1

Avoid using the type together with sizeof, as sizeof(array)/sizeof(char), suddenly gets corrupt if you change the type of the array.

In visual studio, you have the equivivalent if sizeof(array)/sizeof(*array). You can simply type _countof(array)
