Combine CHARs into a CHAR array

[Erasermaster]

How would I go about combining two or more individual characters into a character array?

ex.

char x = d;
char y = f;
char xy[4];
xy = x + y;
cout << xy << endl;

df

thanks

I assume you want a zero-terminated char array (i.e. a C-style string).

char x = 'd';
char y = 'f';
char xy[4];

xy[0] = x;
xy[1] = y;
xy[2] = 0;

cout << xy << endl;

Edit: Added missing ' - good spot, Vlad!

First of all you shall write

char x = 'd';
char y = 'f';

char is a integral type. So x + y is an arithmetic expression. You may assign values to elements of a character array

xy[0] = x;
xy[1] = y;

If you want do display the character array as a string you should append a zero byte

xy[2] = '\0';
cout << xy << endl;


char xy[4];
xy = x + y;
cout << xy << endl;
