How can one determine length of an array

[shivamskn]

Suppose if an integer array along with some integer number is passed to a function. Then how can we check whether the length of array and the value of the integer number passed are equal or not.

Don't use C-style arrays. Use C++ vectors and pass by reference.

C does not support this feature for bare arrays in general.

In the specific case of fixed-size arrays on the stack, it may be possible using templates, but that's really more of a curiosity than anything that would actually be done.

In general you should use a class which wraps the array and stores its size, such as std::vector, or else keep a separate variable around which denotes the array size.

A static array will become part of the upcoming C++ standard. It's already available in namespace std::tr1 in many compilers and it's also in Boost,
