Answer / santhosh kumar sahukari
1.for static array we can find the no.of elements of its by using sizeof() operator and data type of that array.
2.we can find the no.of elements by its subscript in static array.
eg: int arr[10]
we can use sizeof(arr) to find the no.of elements it v l print 20,then we can divide it by 2 as size of int is 2.
2.subscript tells us it has 10 elements.
for dynamic array we cant use sizeof() operator.
we cant say dat how many elements it will have..it will be decided at runtime only.

Answer / jaroosh
a) sizeof(array)/sizeof(element)
b) you cant (well, you can, eg. by using realloc, counting
from 0 up, and checking the result etc. but this is absurd),
its best to keep track somehow how many elements are there
in the array, but the BEST solution is...do NOT use dynamic
arrays at all, use std containers instead like vector.

Answer / murali
for static array start from highest index to lowest (
normal conditions apply*)
if dynamic array is a Container type, size() / length()
will do. if not process the nodes.

Answer / brainless
b) use pointer of last element - pointer of first element + 1
However, we should know the last element's pointer...

In a class, there is a reference or pointer of an object of another class embedded, and the memory is either allocated or assigned to the new object created for this class. In the constructor, parameters are passed to initialize the data members and the embedded object reference to get inialized. What measures or design change should be advised for proper destruction and avioding memory leaks, getting pointers dangling for the embedded object memory allocation? Please suggest.
