13d2b8934445 Import AnaGram (near-)release tree into Mercurial.
David A. Holland

49 The first constructor simply allocates an array of n elements
13d2b8934445 Import AnaGram (near-)release tree into Mercurial.
David A. Holland
parents:

50 of type T and clears the array to zero.

52 The second constructor allocates an array of n elements of

David A. Holland

65 Two overloaded operators, the cast operator <CODE> (T *) </CODE>
13d2b8934445 Import AnaGram (near-)release tree into Mercurial.
David A. Holland
parents:
diff changeset
66 and the subscript operator <CODE> []</CODE>, provide access to the
13d2b8934445 Import AnaGram (near-)release tree into Mercurial.
David A. Holland
parents:
diff changeset
67 contents of the array. The cast operator provides a pointer to the
13d2b8934445 Import AnaGram (near-)release tree into Mercurial.
David A. Holland
parents:
diff changeset
68 data in the array. The subscript operator provides a reference to a

David A. Holland
parents:

69 particular element, which can be used either to read or to
13d2b8934445 Import AnaGram (near-)release tree into Mercurial.

70 write the element. Note that the use of cast operators is
13d2b8934445 Import AnaGram (near-)release tree into Mercurial.

71 often implicit rather than explicit.
