Crow even turning it to a string...

Herboren wrote:

I should be able to add an unspecified amount to each element of the string inside the array. Like adding a 1 to 12345 making it 22345.

string strNumber = "78265";
int nDigits[5];
nDigits[0] = strNumber[0] - '0';
nDigits[1] = strNumber[1] - '0';
nDigits[2] = strNumber[2] - '0';
nDigits[3] = strNumber[3] - '0';
nDigits[4] = strNumber[4] - '0';

Herboren wrote:

strNumber cannot be declared in the program. The strNumber has to ask for users input, because the number could be anything that user specifies. smell my drift?

The first number '7' from 79135 will be stored in aArray[0]. //store 7 in array0
The second number '9' from 79135 will be stored in aArray[1]. //store 9 in array0
The third number '1' from 79135 will be stored in aArray[2]. //store 1 in array0
The fourth number '3' from 79135 will be stored in aArray[3]. //store 3 in array0
The fifth number '5' from 79135 will be stored in aArray[4]. //store 5 in array0

it was supposed to say
//store in aArray[0] //example
//store in aArray[1] //example
//store in aArray[2] //example
//store in aArray[3] //example
//store in aArray[4] //example
this was only an example,

The problem I am having is storing each e-l-e-m-e-n-t of the "string" into an a-r-r-a-y.

I need to create an array based on the amount of symbols in the str, so instead of pre.creating the 'aArray[5]' im using the strlen(str.c_str()) to count the number of symbols in the str from the users input.

int *nArray = new int[what_number_goes_here?];
...
delete [] nArray;
