std::array::max_size(3) | C++ Standard Libary | std::array::max_size(3) |
NAME¶
std::array::max_size - std::array::max_size
Synopsis¶
constexpr size_type max_size() const noexcept; (since C++11)
Returns the maximum number of elements the container is able to hold due to
system
or library implementation limitations, i.e. std::distance(begin(), end()) for
the
largest container.
Parameters¶
(none)
Return value¶
Maximum number of elements.
Complexity¶
Constant.
Notes¶
Because each std::array<T, N> is a fixed-size container,
the value returned by
max_size equals N (which is also the value returned by size)
Example¶
// Run this code
#include <iostream>
#include <locale>
#include <array>
int main()
{
std::array<char, 10> q;
std::cout.imbue(std::locale("en_US.UTF-8"));
std::cout << "Maximum size of the std::array is " <<
q.max_size() << '\n';
}
Output:¶
Maximum size of the std::array is 10
