C sizeof char* array

Question

I have a char* array as follows:

char *tbl[] = { \"1\", \"2\", \"3\" };

How do I use the sizeof operator to get t

Answer 1

Yes, it will give you the number of elements in the array tb1.

int n = sizeof(tbl) / sizeof(tbl[0])

Interpretation:

sizeof(tb1) will gives the size of the entire array i.e, tb1 = 3 bytes

sizeof(tb1[0]) gives the size of the character as tb1[0] gives a character value(value at address tb1+0) = 1 byte

Division of those two will give you 3 elements
