                    | Defined in header  <array> | ||
| template< class T, size_t N > class tuple_size< array<T, N> > : | (1) | (since C++11) | 
Provides access to the number of elements in an std::array as a compile-time constant expression.
| Contents | 
Inherited from std::integral_constant
Member constants
| value [static] | N, the number of elements in the array(public static member constant) | 
Member functions
| operator std::size_t | converts the object to std::size_t, returns value(public member function) | 
Member types
| Type | Definition | 
| value_type | std::size_t | 
| type | std::integral_constant<std::size_t, value> | 
[edit] Example
Run this code
#include <iostream> #include <array> template<class T> void test(T t) { int a[std::tuple_size<T>::value]; // can be used at compile time std::cout << std::tuple_size<T>::value << '\n'; } int main() { std::array<float, 3> arr; test(arr); }
Output:
3
