Array initialization

Basic initialization

int myArray[10] = { 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5 };

other syntax 

int myArray[10] = { [4] = 5, [2] = 5 }; 

is equivalent to

int myArray[6] = { 0, 0, 5, 0, 5, 0 };

initialize a range of elements to the same value

int myArray[10] = {[0 ... 9] = 5};

Elements with missing values will be initialized to 0:

int myArray[10] = { 1, 2 }; // initialize to 1,2,0,0,0...

So this will initialize all elements to 0:

int myArray[10] = { 0 }; // all elements 0(only for Zero initial)

Remember that objects with static storage duration will initialize to 0 if no initializer is specified:

static int myArray[10]; // all elements 0

In C++, an empty initialization list will also initialize every element to 0. This is not allowed with C:

int myArray[10] = {}; // all elements 0 in C++

And that "0" doesn't necessarily mean "all-bits-zero", so using the above is better and more portable than memset(). (Floating point values will be initialized to +0, pointers to null value, etc.)
