C++ Placing values in object array with a for loop

[bparsh1128]

What's going on?

So I created an object that requires an array that contains three integers.

To get those integers I have to parse the values and place them in the object using a for loop.

Originally I had three separate strings for each value and no array and it worked but I was then told to use a for loop that places all three integers in the object array.

Please let me know if I need to clarify and I appreciate any insight or the fact that you even looked at it.


//The object---------------------

Student::Student(int days[]) {

    for (int i = 0; i < daysArray; i++)
     this->days = days;
}

// This is the function using a for loop----------------

void Student::setDaysInCourse(int days[]) {
    
    for (int i = 0; i < daysArray; i++)
        this->days = days;
    
}

//Parsing Method------>After parse, I place each value in the Student object using a function at the end (all others work). For this specific set of values I execute the function on the first one expecting to loop through the next two parse and place all values in the object.

        d = i + 1;
        i = studentDataTable.find(",", d);
        daysInCourse1= stoi(studentDataTable.substr(d, i - d));
       classRosterArray[ind]->setDaysInCourse(daysInCourse1);

        d = i + 1;
        i = studentDataTable.find(",", d);
        daysInCourse2 = stoi(studentDataTable.substr(d, i - d));
        

        d = i + 1;
        i = studentDataTable.find(",", d);
        daysInCourse3 = stoi(studentDataTable.substr(d, i - d));

Like I said I appreciate the help and if I need to further clarify let me know.

Why don't you post the complete code ?

    for (int i = 0; i < daysArray; i++)
     this->days = days;

    for (int i = 0; i < daysArray; i++)
        this->days = days;

The 2 for loops don't make any sense at all.
Can you see it? Where is the difference for each itearation? Is there any?

Indeed that looks pretty pointless, doing exactly the same thing over and over in a loop.
And furthermore, this looks really fishy to me :

for (int i = 0; i < daysArray; i++)

Is daysArray an integer then ?
