Prog Book Error

Can anyone see why this code produces letters and numbers and not the numbers 0 - 14? I think the author made a typo somwhere. It is suposed to be a shorter version that having to use a for loop to literate through the array elements. I get no errors or warnings.

Code:

#include <iostream>

using std::cout;	
using std::endl;

// main function - where program execution begins
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
	const int ArraySize = 15;

	int n[ ArraySize ] = { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 };

	cout << "My array: " << n << " ";

	getchar();	// need to freeze output in debug mode

	return 0;	// indicates program ended sucsessfully
}

that only displays the address of the array, not the individual array elements. Suggest you go to the publisher's web site and see if there are corrections to that book -- most publishers have them free for the downloading.

and I wouldn't trust any book that attempts to teach c++ and winds up using C functions such as getchar()! That alone tells me the book isn't worth the paper its printed on.

>It is suposed to be a shorter version that having to use a for loop to literate through the array elements.
Either that's not the complete code in the book, or the author doesn't know C++ well enough to teach it. Then again, if there is more code that allows you to print an array like this, I would argue that the author still doesn't know C++ well enough to teach it properly.

The code suggests fundamental misunderstandings on the author's part.
