You don't need the loop at all. cout is savvy enough to know where your string ends. Unless there's some other reason for the loop then your show() function is simply:

void show( char str[] )
{
   cout << str;
}


Although in C/C++ we tend to use pointer notation:

void show (char* str)
{
   cout << str;
}


And now, given that your function is doing so little you might question its usefulness and move the code into main:

int main()
{
   char str[] = "helloworld!";
   cout << str;
   return 0;
}


Or, finally, you might prefer to use a string constant:

int main()
{
   cout << "helloworld!";
   return 0;
}


None of which is particularly useful if all you wanted to know is why sizeof() returned 4.
