Array initialisation

[Gary Willoughby]

If i write this code outside of the main function, are the indexes initialised to '\0'?

Code Select Expand

char source[1000000];

The answer is yes.

Cool! Is this standard behaviour on all C99 compilers?

Hi Gary,

Why not to use a memory allocation function?
