Can someone please explain why the memory addresses are getting lower in the below code.



int main(void)
{
int num1 = 1;
int num2 = 2;
int num3 = 3;
int num4 = 4;

i dont want to initialize a value into the char pointer there and then like this


char *word2 = "s";

i want something like this


char* word2 = {0}; // this doesnt work

I am trying to cement my knowledge of pointers ,with very little success at the moment . I want to do the same with the second paragraph of code what i managed with the first . I am obviously using...

Thanks Salem .

There has been a few constructive posts there and i have built a loose conclusion.

Inheritance, operator overloading, virtual functions seem to be used in large projects if not mainly...

Okay a little background about where i stand at the moment . I am relatively happy with functions,classes ,objects ,constructors ,pointers , references . I think you will find that is about day 9 in...

Yeah i appreciate that but i thought a compiler would at least be able to count the number of news in a program and the number of deletes and if the numbers dont match issue a warning.

Just been reading about the new and delete keywords and i made the following simple code



// dynamic memory allocation

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(void)

so basicly if a class needs 20 parameters then so be it.

I just thought that either my program design would be at fault to use that many parameters and that there would be an alternative.

I am trying to get the hang of classes and I am using football management as the context.

I have the following code so for



// classes again

Troll King the book you mentioned is it for advanced users
of c++ or would a newbie be okay ( I know the syntax of c++)

I was thinking of the subject of a football manager game
and how classes...

Thanks FillYourBrain that has put another few pieces of the
puzzle into place. A big problem for me is when does something
qualify to become a class.

What would help me if someone could tell...

I am pretty comfortable with functions , loops and decision making
aspects of c++ and have written some very basic programs
using these techniques.

Now i am trying to get the hang of OOP and I...

Thanks Fordy thats the answer i was hoping for!

Guys,

Are unions the kind of things i can worry about way down the
track when i am comfortable with more important stuff like
inheritance , virtual functions and operator overloading ?
