iOS Objective-C Basics (Retired) Pointers and Memory Array Size and Length

array size-ios

Using the printf function print the size in bytes of the variable real_numbers. Your output should look like the following: Array real_numbers is x bytes.

I cannot seem to pass this challenge. I thought this is how it would look.

float real_numbers[5]= {4, 5, 6, 7, 7}; printf("real numbers %ld bytes\n", sizeof(real_numbers));

any help would be great.

Cheers, Peter
