Better use std::vector instead of a raw array. Then you don't have to manually manage the arrays memory and you can use the size() method if you want to know the number of elements.

If you use a dynamically allocated raw array you are expected to keep track of its size yourself, the size cannot be obtained from the array. Best save it in an extra variable.
