Can you do that with a dynamic array? If not, it's pretty severely limited (unless you mean that literally forbidding dynamic memory is usually not done, which I guess it's true outside of some embedded code but not a particularly meaningful statement).
The syntax is rather confusing. This is not an array of length 1, but rather a pointer which points to a memory segment which is at least 1 integer long. In other words, any array of any length (>=1) would be a valid argument to this function. "static" here means "don't do the normal thing where you totally ignore the length of an array argument to a function (which is, like usual, really just a pointer)". "static" was chosen because the keyword was available rather than because it was a particularly descriptive name.
