Clarification on what is an object

Sep 16, 2011 at 1:33am
Hey everyone,

I am just a newbie so please bear with me.
For my assignment I was specified to not use any c++ string objects.

What does this mean exactly? Does this mean that i cannot use things like strtok() and strcmp()

If you don't know what it means they you are probably going to be fine.

What they mean is that you can not use std::string from the #include <string> header file. But it is okay to use everything from the #include <cstring> header file. So all the functions like strcat(), strcmp() etc. that take char* arguments are absolutely fine.
