How using pointers to enter data.

Hi guys,
I am brand-new to pointers and c++. I want to do simple program to capture some 5 surnames of people(employees) - using array and pointers. Well I understand a bit of arrays and I know how to loop through.

How can achieve this? This holds the key to my understanding how pointers work and can be used with char or strings.

Many thanks

Hi!

This is neither a blog nor is it dead; it's just a little slow sometimes. Especially when your question is so unclear - what is it you don't understand? You understand a bit of arrays and you know how to loop through. Have you tried writing the program then? If so, what does it look like and where are you stuck?
