Write a c++ function which is called GetCopy ans IsEqual(testing cannot be modified)

charPtr getCopy(const charPtr s)
{
    /*
    returns a new cstring that is a copy of the cstring s.
    That is a new cstring with as big memory as the size of 
    the cstring s is created and then all the characters of 
    s including the null char are copied to it.
    */
    int lens = cstrlen(s);
    char *Array = new char[lens+1];
    for(int i = 0; i < lens;i++)
    {
        Array[i] = s[i];
    }
    Array[lens] = '\0';
    return Array;
}

bool isEqual(charPtr s1, charPtr s2)
{
    /*
    returns true if the cstring s1 is equal to the cstring s2
        Definition: Two c-strings s1 and s2 are equal if they have the same length
        and characters of s1 and s2 at corresponding indexes are the same.
    */

}

//Test getCopy function
