How to dynamically increase the array size?
int* newArr = new int[new_size];
std::copy(oldArr, oldArr + std::min(old_size, new_size), newArr);
delete[] oldArr;
oldArr = newArr;
You can't change the size of the array, but you don't need to. You can just allocate a new array that's larger, copy the values you want to keep, delete the original array, and change the member variable to point to the new array.
Allocate a new[] array and store it in a temporary pointer.
Copy over the previous values that you want to keep.
Delete[] the old array.
Change the member variables,
ptr
andsize
to point to the new array and hold the new size.
