Re: [boost] Interest in a small array count facility?

Sure that's easy for monodimensional arrays. When you write something like, for instance,

COUNT_OF_N(3, x)

Out of curiosity, have you ever needed this? I use the one-dimensional function all the time, but I've never, ever, needed to obtain "the 3rd size". By the way, Microsoft seems to be pushing _countof( x ) as a name for this functionality, probably with the intention to make it countof if it gets in an official C or C++ document one day. I've always used array_size or just size, but countof isn't bad.
