Overload assignment operator

#1

for eg i have my own vector class and i have created an object v of size 5,now i want to assign values to this object as
v[0]=something,v[1]=something and so on…,
but it is giving error as lvalue required ,
have a look on my code and tell how to overload assignment operator

#2

I`ll debug the solution and get back to u in a while

#3

I have figured out a way to add value to the last position of the array, using overloading of = operator

The following code snippet gives an idea .

void operator = (const T value ) {
a[cs++] = value;
}

 v = 2;

Since = operator can take just 1 argument the index cannot be specified.
So the value is appended to the end of the array

#4

see basically why u r getting the error is that

u have overloaded the [] operator
which returns u the value at the specified address
and then
we are willing to overload the = operator giving it a functionality of assiging the value at specified index

but using
v[2] = 3
the complier understands it in the following way
v[2] would give u the value at index 2 that would be a literal constant of type T , then we are trying to assign a another value to the constant we have obatined

lets suppose value at v[2] = 4
, so what we are trying to do is
4 = 3
which is why we get lvalue much be modifiable

You need to comment out either of the overloading scenarios

#5

Refer to this code by prateek bhaiya
it has all the operations performed
