Dynamic array in Stack? So from this link, I saw this:
#include <iostream> #include <vector> int main() { int x = 0; std::cin >> x; std::vector<char> pz(x); } But what I want is something like this:
include <iostream> include <vector> using namespace std; int main() { long int *p; long int *another_p; p = generate_random_vector(); //this is a function that generates a vector //and I'm assigning this vector to *p vector<long int>vectorName(n); //size n will be known when I read from a file //I would like to store the value of vector of *p in vectorName *another_p = vectorName; //I would like to store the value of vectorName in *another_p return 0; } So any suggestions on doing this?
Here's what I originally did which isn't allowed in C++:
int main() { long int *p; long int *another_p; long int arrayName[n]; //n can be obtained from reading a file p = generate_random_vector(); for ( int i = 0; i < n; i++ ) { arrayName[i] = p[i]; } for ( int i = 0; i < n; i++ ) { another_p[i] = arrayName[i]; } return 0; } 
std::vector) then to copy from one to the other you can use simple and plain assignment:std::vector<long> another_vector; ...; another_vector = vectorName;
