    • Specify length of array in declaration.

      The Compiler issues an error when a constexpr array does not specify length, for example:
      constexpr char fails[] =

      { "string"[0], "string"[1], "string"[2], '\0'};
      error: expression must have a constant value

      There is no error when the length of the array is specified, for example:
      constexpr char works[4] = { "string"[0], "string"[1], "string"[2], '0'}

      ;
