What is copy construct in c plus plus?

A copy constructor is a separate, compiler created constructor for a class. This allows the programmer to instantiate a class and copy the contents of the given class into the new class. For example: If I have a class foobar: Foobar foobar; Foobar foobar1( foobar ); The second line creates a class in the exact image of the original class, with all of its variables set the same way as the original class.


What is the purpose of save as?

The editing command "Save as" is used to save a current named file under a different name, e.g. to make a copy or backup file, or to leave the previous form of the file unchanged while still keeping the current changes for access (useful if you have overwritten information and cannot undo the recent changes). Usually a Save As command for a new or unnamed file will do the same thing as simply Save.


What is d procedure for writing swapping program?

To swap two objects, A and B, you need a temporary object, T. top act as an intermediate. A traditional swap uses the following algorithm: Copy A to T Copy B to A Copy T to B The problem with this is that it is highly inefficient. Think about what is happening to the original objects at each stage: Copy A to T: there are now 2 copies of A in memory and one of B Copy B to A: there are now 2 copies of B in memory and one of A Copy T to B: there are now 2 copies of A in memory and one of B Even when the swap is physically complete we've still got to destroy that one extra copy of the original A. But why are we even making copies at all? When people swap object they don't make copies of those objects, they simply transfer ownership and that's the same concept we should be emulating in code. Instead of copying objects, we should be moving them: Move A to T Move B to A Move T to B We still need a temporary object in order to mediate the swap, of course, however at every stage of the swap there's only ever one instance of A and one of B in memory. Note that when we say move we're not physically moving objects in memory, nor are we copying them. What we're actually doing is swapping resources. That is, when we move A to T, A passes ownership of its resources to T and in return receives ownership of T's resources. But since T shouldn't own any resources to begin with, neither will A when the move is complete -- and that's exactly what we want.

No, they do not accomplish exactly the same task. Copy and paste makes a copy of the highlighted text to the clipboard while paste puts that copied data on the clipboard at the new location. Move (which is actually a cut and paste operation) removes the original from its current location and then pastes it to the new location where the paste command is executed.
