I need some help figuring what I should do when I dynamically allocate memory to four instantces pointing to an animal class. After I allocate memory in the constructor, I must set it to "Lion", "Cat", "Dog", "Monkey". So far this is what I have written. Feedback would be great! The following code runs, however, I think I am not setting it correctly. I not quite sure?
//Animal.h
class Animal
{
private:
Animal *L;
Animal *C;
Animal *D;
Animal *M;
};
//Animal.cpp
Animal::Animal()
{
Animal *L = new Animal;
Animal *C = new Animal;
Animal *D = new Animal;
Animal *M = new Animal;
}
