Hi Robert,
Unless you're dealing with legacy code, then with C++ std::vector or or
std::list are the way to go. These container classes come with end()
methods which allow you to detect when you've reached the end of the
container. Even if you are dealing with legacy code, it is possible to
pass vectors as arrays in most cases, althougth this would probably
require more code changes than you want.
HTH,
David.

Hi.
I am curious if there is any sort of value used to designate the end
of an array for arrays that are not of type char. I checked the book,
"The C Programming Language", the book, "C++: The Complete Reference,
4th ed.", and briefly checked and found no information on the value
used to designate the end of a non-character array.
Does such an end-of-array value exist for arrays that are not
character arrays? Thank you for your responses in advance
