Copying one array to another array:
An array is the variable which stores the same types of data. To copy the data from one array to another, first initialize the two arrays with their respective element sizes.
- Consider one of the arrays is filled with a set of values and the filled array is required to be copied to another array.
- To copy the content of one array to another, assign each element of the array to another by using the equal to (“=”) operator.
- Each element of the array can be referred to by using index numbers of the array.
Example:
Consider the following code which performs the copying of array elements.
// Header file section
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
// Main function definition
int main()
{
// Declaring the arrays
int list1[5];
int list2[5];
//Declare the variables
int n, i;
/* Prompt the user to enter the number of elements
need to be copied */
cout << "Enter the number of elements need to be copied" << endl;
// Read “n” value from the user
cin >> n;
/* Execute the for loop to include the elements in the list1[]*/
for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
cin >> list1[i];
}
// Copying of one array to another
/* Execute the for loop to copy the elements from
list1[] to list2[]*/
for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
//Copying each element of the array to another
list2[i] = list1[i];
}
// Print the header
cout << "copied array" << endl;
/* Execute the for loop to print the elements in the
list2[]*/
for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
cout << list2[i] << endl;
}
}
Explanation:
Thus, in the above example, the two arrays are first initialized with the elements and then one array is assigned to another array using the equal to “=” operator. But, this equal to operator does not copy the content alone; it is used for assignment.

- What significant justification is there for the -> operator in C and C++?arrow_forwardMultidimensional arrays can be stored in row major order, as in C++, or in column major order, as in Fortran. Develop the access functions for both of these arrangements for three-dimensional arrays.arrow_forwardWhat are the arguments for and against Java’s implicit heap storage recovery, when compared with the explicit heap storage recovery required in C++?

- 8. Name and Email AddressesWrite a program that keeps names and email addresses in a dictionary as key-value pairs. The program should display a menu that lets the user look up a person’s email address, add a new name and email address, change an existing email address, and delete an existing name and email address. The program should pickle the dictionary and save it to a file when the user exits the program. Each time the program starts, it should retrieve the dictionary from the file and unpickle it. How would the user be able to use the program?arrow_forwardPlease solve and answer the question correctly please. Thank you!!arrow_forwardPlease solve and answer the question correctly please.
