Hi people, how can i flush or delete the cells of an array of ints in c++?

Answer 1

OK but i' m sorry I said that badly. i was wondering how to delete the memory in the cells , not necessarily the cells themselves

Answer 2

mmm.. OK thenks i will try all

Answer 3

Umbe, can you give some more details on the code?
how was the array allocated?
int arr[SIZE];
or
int *arr = new int[SIZE];

Answer 4

You can't delete array cells
int arr[] = {1,2,3,4} for example has a fixed size of 4, you can't make it smaller or bigger.

In order to support deletion ( and adding ) you have to look for dynamic arrays ( int * arr = new int[size])

But since this is quite hard to manage correctly C++ provides you with wrappers to manage this for you

vectors are what you're looking for which support adding and deletion.

Answer 5

If you have the array allocated by new you can simply call

delete[] arr;
