Accesing array beyond it's size doesn't gives any error in c++ how?

i was declare a array size of 5. even i print 10 element in array it gives some random values not error message. this behavior same for all languages or c++ only. https://code.sololearn.com/c8uH1lyTLI7U/#cpp

C++ isn't safe with native arrays. Use std::array instead, with the '.at' method (it will throw an error) : std::array<int, 5> arr; std::cout << arr.at(10);

AZHAGESAN S You will get garbage value. I think it is only in C. Java will give exception.

AJ Anant #G3 thanks sir Théophile shows an error like array is not a member of std. Give me any working example. I'm new to c++

Théophile now it gives out of range error that's fine. But this method doesn't give uninitialized error when using like arr [2]. Previous example gives uninitialized error. Is that possible to check both errors?

AZHAGESAN S you need to include the std header file: #include <array> At the beginning of the program.

It doesn't seem to be an error not to initialize an array in c++. If you want to initialize it with zero-values, you can do : std::array<int, 5> arr{}; It is explained in this Stack Overflow link : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18295302/default-initialization-of-stdarray
