copying values of an array to another array?!

Okay say i have a array a of 5 integers how do i copy the values to an array b?

here is a

Code:

---

int a[5] = {5,4,3,2,1};

---

what code could i write to copy that into another array b?...

A loop.

Or a recursive function. Or use memcpy(). But a loop is best.

of course it is! jeppers! im starting to worrie about my exams! lol!!!! i have the worst memory! lol! thanks for your help

okay.. heres my attempt.

Code:

---

for (i=0;i<4;i++){
  b[i] = a[i];
}

---

im not sure about the b[i]=a[i] would that work? or do i need another variable for the array in a? any suggestions would be appreciated.

Edit: It should be i<5, because there are 5 elements in the array.

dose the array not start from 0 tho? or am i thinking of somthing completly different there?

i<4 is correct

It should be < 5 or <= 4, < 4 only copies the first 4 elements (0 - 3), while the array is (0 - 4).

In other words:

Code:

---

int from[N] = {...}, to[N], x;

for(x = 0; x < N; x ++) {
    to[x] = from[x];
}
