Dynamic Arrays

Explore the concept of dynamic arrays in C++. Learn how to declare, initialize, resize, and deallocate arrays during program execution using dynamic memory allocation with new and delete operators. Understand how to manage memory efficiently while handling arrays that can grow or shrink as needed.

Dynamic arrays

In the arrays lesson, we discussed static arrays. In a static array, a fixed amount of memory is allocated to the array during the compile time. Therefore, we cannot allocate more memory to the arrays during program execution.

Suppose we have declared an array that can store five integer values.

What if we want to store more than five values in an array? Here is dynamic arrays come in!
