The C standard guarantees that SIZE_MAX will be at least 65535. size_t is the type returned by sizeof operator, and is used in the standard library (for example strlen returns size_t).
In several C++ examples I see a use of the type size_t where I would have used a simple int. What's the difference, and why size_t should be better?
Where do I find the definition of size_t, and what is it used for?

What is the difference between .size() and .length ? Is .size() only for arraylists and .length only for arrays?
The C++ standard does not specify the size of integral types in bytes, but it specifies a minimum width in bits (see [basic.types.fundamental] p1). You can infer minimum size in bytes from that and the value of the CHAR_BIT macro that defines the number of bits in a byte. In all but the most obscure platforms it's 8, and it can't be less than 8. One additional constraint for char is that its ...
What does the C++ standard say about the size of int, long?
I found two ways to determine how many elements are in a variable… I always get the same values for len () and size (). Is there a difference? Could size () have come with an imported library (like...
