c++ - Creating my own strcopy function -

i trying create own str copy function. error telling me strcopy not declated in scope strcopy(deck[i].suit,source[]); wehre error occurs. please!

#include <fstream> #include <iostream> using namespace std;  struct{ char suit[]; char rank[]; int cvalue; }; int main() { char source[] = "name"; cards deck[52];  strcopy(deck[].suit,source[]); }  void strcopy(char destination[], char source[]) { for(int i=0; source[i] != '\0' && destination[i] != '\0'; i++) { destination[i] = source[i]; } } 

first of forgot specify name of structure. think should have name cards

also arrays defined within structure have defined having sizes.

struct{ char suit[];  // size of array? char rank[];  // size of array? int cvalue; }; 

function strcopy has declared before isage.

and function wrong.

i not invent new algorithm of function , write following way

char * strcopy( char destination[], const char source[] ) {    char *p = destination;     while ( *p++ = *source++ );     return destination;  }
