To specify type conversions explicitly,and as an argument ofsizeof,alignof,new,
ortypeid,
the name of a type shall be specified[.](#1.sentence-1)
This can be done with a[*type-id*](#nt:type-id "9.3.2Type names[dcl.name]") or [*new-type-id*](expr.new#nt:new-type-id "7.6.2.8New[expr.new]") ([[expr.new]](expr.new "7.6.2.8New")),
which is syntactically a declaration for a variable or function
of that type that omits the name of the entity[.](#1.sentence-2)

It is possible to identify uniquely the location in the[*abstract-declarator*](#nt:abstract-declarator "9.3.2Type names[dcl.name]") where the identifier would appear if the construction were a declarator
in a declaration[.](#1.sentence-3)
The named type is then the same as the type of the
hypothetical identifier[.](#1.sentence-4)
[*Example [1](#example-1)*:
int // int iint * // int *piint *[3] // int *p[3]int (*)[3] // int (*p3i)[3]int *() // int *f()int (*)(double) // int (*pf)(double) name respectively the types
“int”,
“pointer toint”,
“array of 3 pointers toint”,
“pointer to array of 3int”,
“function of (no parameters) returning pointer toint”,
and “pointer to a function of
(double)
returningint”[.](#1.sentence-5)

[*Note [1](#note-1)*:
A type can also be named by a [*typedef-name*](dcl.typedef#nt:typedef-name "9.2.4The typedef specifier[dcl.typedef]"),
which is introduced by a typedef declaration
or [*alias-declaration*](dcl.pre#nt:alias-declaration "9.1Preamble[dcl.pre]") ([[dcl.typedef]](dcl.typedef "9.2.4The typedef specifier"))[.](#2.sentence-1)
