Transcript text: Assuming a 64 Bit Architecture, int dLists[10] is how many bytes?
Solution
To determine the number of bytes occupied by the array int dLists[10] on a 64-bit architecture, we need to consider the size of the int data type on this architecture.
Size of int on a 64-bit architecture:
Typically, the size of an int is 4 bytes (32 bits) on most architectures, including 64-bit architectures. This is a common standard, although it can vary depending on the specific system and compiler.
Size of the array dLists[10]:
The array dLists contains 10 elements, each of which is an int.
Therefore, the total size of the array in bytes is calculated by multiplying the number of elements by the size of each element.
\[
\text{Total size} = \text{Number of elements} \times \text{Size of each element}
\]
