Thread: Array Help Please

Goal:
Write a program that compares the values stored in the first array to the user inputted values in the second array.


In order to fix this error:


Compiler Error C2078


I had to change my array initialization to one with a star in front of it:

Code:

char a1[]={"a","d","b","b","c","b","a","b","c","d","a","c","d","b","d","c","c","a","d","b"};

to:

Code:

char *a1[]={"a","d","b","b","c","b","a","b","c","d","a","c","d","b","d","c","c","a","d","b"};

I also changed my 2nd array to one with a star in front of it:

Code:

char *a2[20];

What does this mean exactly? Putting a star in front of an array?


Also, I am now getting an "unhandled exception" when I try to get input for my 2nd array:

Code:

cin>>a2[i];

Figured it out. Was using double quotes for char array.
