使用 Memset 函数时对数组的引用是模棱两可的错误

问：

我不明白为什么我会接受这个“奇怪”的错误。我读过类似的问题，但它没有回答我的问题。如果我在 main 函数而不是全局范围内定义数组，则没有错误。但是假设我必须在全局范围内定义这个数组。为什么我会出现这个错误？ 代码如下：

#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>

using namespace std;

int right[1005];
int main()
{
    memset(right,0,sizeof(right));
return 0;
}

这是错误：

memset2.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
memset2.cpp:9:9: error: reference to ‘right’ is ambiguous
  memset(right,0,sizeof(right));
     ^
memset2.cpp:6:5: note: candidates are: int right [1005]
 int right[1005];
