C++ Array back() Function

The C++ std::array::back() function is used to retutn the reference to the last element in a array container. It provides constant time access to the last element, allowing both reading and modifying the value.

When the back() function is invoked on the empty array, it results in a undefined behaviour.

Following is the syntax for std::array::at() function.

reference back();
const_reference back() const;

It does not accepts any parameter.

This function returns the reference to the last element in the array.

Calling this function on zero sized array will cause undefined behaviour.

Constant i.e. O(1)

In the following example, we are going to consider the basic usage of the back() function.

#include <iostream>
#include <array>
using namespace std;
int main(void) {
   array < int, 5 > arr = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
   cout << "Last element of array = " << arr.back() <<
      endl;
   arr.back() = 50;
   cout << "after modification last element of array = " << arr.back() <<
      endl;
   return 0;
}

Output of the above code is as follows −

Last element of array = 5
after modification last element of array = 50

Consider the following example, where we are going to find the last element of the integer using the back() function.

#include <iostream>
#include <array>
using namespace std;
int main() {
   array < int, 10 >
      myarray {9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36 };
   cout << myarray.back();
   return 0;
}

Following is the output of the above code −

36

Let's look at the following example, where we are going to initialize the array without size and observing the output.

#include <iostream>
#include <array>
using namespace std;
int main() {
   array < char >
      myarray {'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g'};
   cout << myarray.back();
   return 0;
}

If we run the above code it will generate the following output −

/tmp/p96P7KSefI.cpp:7:19: error: wrong number of template arguments (1, should be 2)
    7 |         array<char>
