Can't delete array

[JackMoore]

int myarray[10] = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0};
delete [] myarray;

Returns:

expected unqualified-id before 'delete'

Does anyone know why?

Why are you trying to delete something that you did not "new"?

[Galik]

You should not be deleting an array that you did not create using new.

And if you do have something to delete you need to put the statement into a function like this:

int* myarray = new int[10]; 

int main()
{
    delete[] myarray;
}
