whats the difference between usig the new[] operator and the new operator??? ~prevail by daring to fail~

with the ''new'' operator, you allocate memory and get a pointer to it:

int* i = new int;

now, if you want to allocate an array of 100 int''s:

int* iv = new int [100];

(the size you allocate must be a constant/const variable)

..and make sure that you delete the second one like this:

delete [] iv; //delete the whole block

new is for single items. For example:

// Gives you a pointer to 1 intint* abc = new int; 

new[] is for arrays. For example:

// Gives you a pointer to 10 intsint* abc = new int[10];
