Using pthreads, how would one, in C, initialize array of mutexes?

For a single mutex, it seems I can use PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER. But what about an array of them? As, in for example,

#include <pthread.h>

/*initialize mutex array*/
pthread_mutex_t mutexes[] = ...?

is there a way to make the mutex array dynamic?

And what is the difference between static and non-static mutexes?

Using `pthread_mutex_init`? – Dec 02 '18 at 19:08
