 ## Number and character arrays
 
-A C++ array can be described as a collection of entities *of the same type* and arranged *contiguously* in memory. C++ inherits its *built-in array* syntax from C, sometimes these are referred to as *C-style* arrays. Uniform initialization syntax can be used to assign the contents of an array at the point it is defined (and **only** at this point). This is called *aggregate initialization* using a *braced initializer* (the equals sign shown below is in fact optional):

 * The size of the array called `str[]` is set by an integer constant, and this value is needed twice more in the program where it is accessible as `size(str)`, a compile-time value. An alternative way would be to use a constant or macro at each point the value is needed, and this is the only way to avoid repeated *magic constants* in older versions of C++ which did not provide `std::size()`.
