constexpr size_type max_size() const noexcept;
(since C++11)

Returns the maximum number of elements the container is able to hold.

Contents

[edit] Parameters

(none)

[edit] Return value

Maximum number of elements, i.e. N.

[edit] Complexity

Constant.

[edit] 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()).

[edit] Example

#include <iostream>
#include <locale>
#include <array>
 
int main()
{
    std::array<char, 10> p;
    std::array<long, 10> q;
 
    std::cout.imbue(std::locale("en_US.UTF-8"));
    std::cout << std::uppercase
              << "p.max_size() = " << std::dec << p.max_size() << " = 0x"
              << std::hex << p.max_size() << '\n'
              << "q.max_size() = " << std::dec << q.max_size() << " = 0x"
              << std::hex << q.max_size() << '\n';
}

Output:

p.max_size() = 10 = 0xA
q.max_size() = 10 = 0xA
