void Stack::push(int)
{
if (stacksize = stackcapacity)
{
stackcapacity = stacksize * 2;
int* p;
p = new int[stackcapacity];
strcpy(stackarray, p);
delete stackarray;
stackarray = &p;
}

}

i want to know how do i copy the values of the stack array into s.stackarray.
I think I can do it with a for loop but i dont know how..can anyone help

strcpy() doesn't work with any array - only char arrays (C-style strings) - due to the nature of how it works. Like you say, you'll need to iterate over the arrays and swap each element individually. How much do you know about using for loops?

im not to familiar with for loops .. thats what i was looking for help on and how to swap back and forth .. if you could help that would be great

after Zhuge:

a[]={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9};
b[10]={0};
for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
b[i]=a[i];

//the tenth element is NUL or '\0' and is added 'automatically' but the size of the array must allow for this!
