When you initialize an array like that, it will initialize all elements you specify to the values you give, and any remaining elements will be initialized to zero (for fundamental types) or with the default constructor (for objects). If the array does not have a subscript, then the number of elements is taken from the number of values you provide: // all set to 9 int array1[10] = {9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9}; // first three set to 9, rest set to 0 int array2[10] = {9, 9, 9}; // five elements, all set to 9 int array3[] = {9, 9, 9, 9, 9};
