dynamic array problems

[blackstormdragon]

I have a feeling I'm doing this whole dynamic array thing wrong, or Im misunderstanding it.

private:
    int degree;
    int numCoef;
    double *coef;
 
Polynomial::Polynomial( int hdegree)
{
    degree = hdegree;
    numCoef = degree + 1;
    coef = new double [numCoef];
    FillCoef();
}

These are just some snipits of code. When coef creates a new double, all I get is a one element array. No matter what is put in. I have a feeling I'm very confused, helps very appreciated.
Thanks

it is possible there is some error in the fillcoef() function.. which i guess inserts values in the the dynamic array .. could u post the relevant insertion fucntion so that u get better help?

How are you determining that it's a one element array?

Heres the code for filling the array.

int c;
 
    for(int index =0; index < numCoef ;index++)
    {
        cout<<"What coefficient do you want for x^"<<index<<": ";
        cin>>c;
        coef[index] = c;
    }
    cout<<endl;

When I debugg using f10, I can look at the elements in coef and there is only ever one element.

*EDIT: I have a feeling every thing works Ok. I think I just don't understand pointers fully. I say this becuase now that my cout overload works everything is prinitng ok. So this problem is fixed, now I just have to fix my +- and * overload statments. Thanks for the help.
