Question

This is just a basic print a sentence array string. I am new to c++ only used JAVA and similar languages never c before. Trying to learn it by going through every different sort algorithm and data structure.

But before I could get started just testing my string array would give me an error. I have no idea why it is giving me a error. Compiles fine in fact runs and prints the intend content but crashes with a error if you are debugging it. Can anyone explain to me as to why that is. Tried size() and length() from c++ library but had to use sizeof()

//BubbleSort.cpp
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    string something[14];
    something[0] = "Kate";
    something[1] = "likes";
    something[2] = "lots";
    something[3] = "of";
    something[4] = "cake";
    something[5] = "in";
    something[6] = "her";
    something[7] = "mouth";
    something[8] = "and";
    something[9] = "will";
    something[10] = "pay";
    something[11] = "a";
    something[12] = "lot";
    something[13] = "lol";
    int some = sizeof(something);
    some--;
    for (int i = 0; i < some; i++)
    {
        cout << something[i] << " " ;
    }
    system("pause");
    return 0;
}

sizeof(something) would not return 14 as you expect , but it returns sizeof(string)*14 so you are encountering a buffer overflow when you try to print .
What you need is

some = sizeof(something)/sizeof(string) 

or as mentioned by @Tiago you could use

some = sizeof(something)/sizeof(something[0])

Also as @James suggested you should look into std:vector .
