Int is not int. C++ is case sensitive.
The only way to do this at the point of declaration is to repeat the number
as many times as you need it, e.g.,
int array[5] = {9,9,9,9,9};
Alternatively, you can do it in a loop after the declaration.
Vectors allow you to avoid repeating the number:
std::vector<int> array(5, 9);

Does anyone know how to initialize an int array with a non-zero number?
int intArr[n1] = {x1}; // declaration and initialization
n1 can be any positive integer value and x1 can be any legitimate
value; number, char, pointer to another array, etc.. I believe you
don't need to specify all the elements in the list. That said, I
trust I will be corrected if I'm wrong
-- OR --
int intArr[n1]; // declaration
intArr[0] = x1; // initialization
It all depends on how far you want to go. You can give it a completer
list in the first example if you want. Or, you can use a for loop
that runs through the array index until it has filled the last
element, using the second statement inside the loop, substituting your
index variable for the zero and applying whatever number you
application feels is appropriate for the array.
Thank You Very Much.
You're welcome.

Your code has the effect of initializing the first element of the array to
x1 and the rest to zero. You also can't use pointer values without a cast.

>> how to initialize an int array with a non-zero number? John Carson .....
first element of the array to x1 and the rest to zero
if we write, int a[20]; it leaves the whole array uninintialized. It
doesn't initalize array with 0's at all. after all it is c++, not java
or vb.
if we write int a[20]={ 1,2};
then it will initialize only first two elements, and leave all others
uninitialized.
Still if you want to initialize an array with 0's, you have to write it
expilicitly.
int a[3]={0,0,0}; or use std::vector, std::vector<int> a(size,0);
The answer is whether u want to initialize array with zero or non-zero
value , you have to explicitly initialize them.
> Does anyone know how to initialize an int array with a non-zero number?
did anyone mention memset?
like, int * pi = new int (123);
memset(pi, <some byte here>, 123*sizeof(int));
pity you'd have pretty limited initial values set to choose from.

This is wrong.
[dcl.init.aggr] 8.5.1 Aggregates
....
7 If there are fewer initializers in the list than there are members in
the aggregate, then each member not explicitly initialized shall be
value-initialized (8.5).
[Example:
struct S { int a; char* b; int c; };
S ss = { 1, "asdf" };
initializes ss.a with 1, ss.b with "asdf", and ss.c with the value of an
expression of the form int(), that is, 0. ]

Just iterate over the array and initialize its members with any values you
like.
The standard library provides some basic function templates for filling
arrays as well as ranges:
fill/fill_n
generate
Example:
int a[10];
fill_n(a, sizeof(a) / sizeof(*a), 1); // fill with ones

That should be
int *pi = new int[123];
memset(pi, <some byte here>, 123*sizeof(int));
This does byte by byte initialisation, which is viable for the very small
fraction of integers which have the same number in each byte.
pity you'd have pretty limited initial values set to choose from.
Small and obsure. You cannot do this:
memset(pi, 5, 123*sizeof(int));
and initialise all integers to 5. You initialise all integers to whatever
number consists of a 5 in each byte.

You say: "x1 can be any legitimate value; number, char, pointer to another
array, etc". Thus the "pointer to another array" is the pointer that I speak
of. x1 cannot be a pointer without using a cast.

first will be x1 and the rest zero as you say. If you had all my post

The OP asked how to initialize an array with a non-zero number. I took this
to mean initialize the *whole* array with a non-zero number and so I took
your answer to be a claim that
int intArr[n1] = {x1};
initialized each element in the array to x1. The fact that you also gave
alternative methods of initialization was not inconsistent with this
interpretation.
If my interpretation was incorrect, I apologize.

That's true, but not what John presented. He initialized the first
value. The rest of the array will be default initialized.
if we write int a[20]={ 1,2};
then it will initialize only first two elements, and leave all others
uninitialized.
You are incorrect. The rest of the array will be filled with 0.

I have no problem and readily concede that point and, truthfully,

Oh how I hate first encounters :-). I am used to people only
applying to one point and will concede this also and stand now

returning the original document intact so context of the discussion

you hadn't paid attention to the rest of the post. My apologies.
