Thread: Problem Copying char array

Hi guys. I keep receiving problems when copying characters from an array to another. I'm using Visual C++ 6.0 on Windows XP Home Edition. I've also tested my code on Dev C++ and it does not work.

Code:

#include <iostream.h>
#include <string.h>

int main()
{
	char word[20], perm[20];
	int i, j, max;

	cin >> word;
	
	max = strlen(word);
	for(i = 0; i < max; ++i)
		word[i] = perm[i];
	for(j = 0; j < max; ++j)
		cout << perm[j];
	return 0;
}

Input:
CALENDAR
Output:
ÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌ

Thanks in advance.

Thanks.
