+.. c:macro:: Py_ARRAY_LENGTH(array)
+
+   Compute the length (number of elements) of a statically allocated C array at
+   compile time.
+
+   The *array* argument must be a C array with a size known at compile time,
+   not a pointer. On supported compilers, passing a pointer will result in a
+   compilation error or otherwise produce incorrect results.
