Chapter 7 Arrays and Vectors
TRUE/FALSE
1. The amount of memory used by an array depends on the array's data type and the number of elements in the array.
2. An array initialization must be all on one line.
3. When you pass an array as an argument to a function, the function can modify the contents of the array.
4. C++ limits the number of array dimensions to two.
5. If you attempt to store data past an array's boundaries, it is guaranteed to cause a compiler error.
6. An individual array element can be processed like any other type of C++ variable.
7. In C++11 you cannot use a range-based for loop to modify the contents of an array unless you declare the range variable as a reference variable.
8. In C++11 the range-based for loop is best used in situations where you need the element subscript for some purpose.
9. Although two-dimensional arrays are a novel idea, there is no known way to pass one to a function.
10. Each individual element of an array can be accessed by the array name and the element subscript.
