How does array allocation work in C++11?

Can you explain how array allocation works in C++11?

Sure! In C++11, you can allocate arrays using both static and dynamic methods. Static arrays are defined with a fixed size, while dynamic arrays can be allocated using the new keyword.

What are the differences between static and dynamic arrays?

Static arrays have a fixed size determined at compile time, while dynamic arrays can be resized during runtime. Dynamic arrays require manual memory management.

How do I properly deallocate a dynamic array?

You can deallocate a dynamic array using the delete[] operator. For example, if you allocated an array with new, you should use delete[] arrayName; to free the memory.

Are there any risks associated with dynamic array allocation?

Yes, the main risks include memory leaks if you forget to deallocate memory and potential buffer overflows if you access out-of-bounds elements.
