int n; cin>>n; int array[n]; This way is possible.... Hoping this is what you searching... Edit: For additional info regarding this, see the post of @shadow sir/mam post below..

I would just like to mention that the code int n; cin >> n; int array[ n ]; is not exactly standardized C++. Variable-length arrays are a part of C as of C99, but haven't been introduced to the C++ standard. Most compilers will support the construct as a language extension, but I don't think you should rely on this. The "proper" way would be to either use dynamic memory allocation: https://www.sololearn.com/learn/CPlusPlus/1632/ Or just to use std::vector: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/container/vector

Shadow Is there any wrong or changes needed to my answer..? Please tell me, if there any.. I just said as " a possible way" since he asked about array type(static).. To don't miss lead any one, correct me if there any wrong.. And Thanks for the addition information...

Jayakrishna Nothing besides what I have already mentioned. Just wanted to point out that it, although working, is not pure standard C++, and therefore should be avoided from my perspective, that's all.
