So I need to find the size of the array real numbers and all I get as a error is "Bummer! Try again!" and nothing shows in output to even guide me, but when I put the same code in X-Code it prints the size just fine.
Here's my code I put in the challenge:
float real_numbers[]={11.11, 22.22, 33.33, 44.44, 55.55}; printf("array %ld is bytes.\n",sizeof(real_numbers)); return 0;

This is my answer when I redid the challenge:
float real_numbers[5];
printf("Array real_numbers is %ld bytes.\n", sizeof(real_numbers));
printf("Array real_numbers can store %ld items.\n", sizeof(real_numbers)/sizeof(int));

6,885 PointsThank you, when I did it before doing the division it never told me why it was wrong also. I appreciate your help, the video before it never told me that I needed to use a int to get the answer, but whatever works thanks again. I'm now learning this whole Objective-C stuff.
