Array size

[nbgoku]

if i set my array size to be [6], can i change it to [24] later on or is this not allowed with arrays?

It's not allowed with arrays, but you can do it using memory allocation.

The initial array is created like this.

int *array;
array = new int[6];

Throw away the old array of 6 elements and make it 24.

delete [] array;
array = new int[24];

I strongly recommend looking up the STL vector class instead of using dynamically allocated arrays directly. It will simplify things greatly.
