Simple pointer question (:)

[J]

Hi,

I have an array:

double *array = new double[50];
Well, I have 2 actually.
double *array2 = new double[50];
Say 'array' is poulated with 'doubles'. How do I copy all of array's values
into 'array2'?


TIA,
-- JA

memcpy(array2, array, 50 * sizeof(double));

Thanks my friend, totally forgot memcpy. (Haven't programmed in awhile!!)

std::copy(array, array + 50, array2);

This assumes that 'array' and 'array2' each have at least
50 elements, and that all elements of 'array' have valid
values.

'std::copy()' is declared by <algorithm>.

memcpy(array2, array, 50 * sizeof(double));

Hmm...whats memcpy doing in a c++ forum :-)

memcpy() is a standard C++ library function.
