Thread: Have a better method of doing this?

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

inline int some(int *a_number, int yournumber)
{
 a_number= new int[5];
 a_number[0]= yournumber;

 return a_number[0];
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
 int number;
 int extra;
 cout << "Input a number: ";
  cin >> number;

 extra= some(&extra, number);
 cout << "Your number is: " << extra << endl;

 cin.get();
 return 0;
}

I'm too depress to explain.
