Question

Can anyone spot the reason why nothing gets printed onto console using below C++ code;

string array[] = { "a", "b", "c", "d" };

int length = sizeof(array);
try
{
    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
    {
        if (array[i] != "") cout << array[i];
    }
}
catch (exception &e)
{
    e.what();
}

Answer 1

You use the wrong length:

int length = sizeof(array)/sizeof(array[0])

The actual reason you don’t see anything on the console is because the output is buffered, and since you haven’t wrote a newline it’s not flushed. In the meantime your app crashes.
