Chapter 16, Problem 34RQE
Program Plan Intro
Function template:
In C++, a function template is referred as a “generic” function, which can work with different data types.
- While writing a function template, a programmer can specify the “type parameter” instead of using the actual data type.
- The compiler generates the code, when it encounters a function call to a function template. This code will handle the particular data type which is used in the function call.
Example:
For example consider the below function template used to find the cube of given value for any types:
//template function
template <class T>
//function definition of "cube"
T cube(T x)
{
//return the cube of the value
return x*x*x ;
}

Modify the Insert Tool Function to ask the user if they want to expand the tool holder to accommodate additional tools
Add the code to the insert tool function to increase the capacity of the toolbox (Dynamic Array)
USE THE FOLLOWING CODE and MODIFY IT:
#define _SECURE_SCL_DEPRECATE 0
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
class GChar
{
public:
static const int DEFAULT_CAPACITY = 5;
//constructor
GChar(string name = "john", int capacity = DEFAULT_CAPACITY);
//copy constructor
GChar(const GChar& source);
//Overload Assignment
GChar& operator=(const GChar& source);
//Destructor
~GChar();
//Insert a New Tool
void insert(const std::string& toolName);
private:
//data members
string name;

In c++, please and thank you!
Write a function that dynamically allocates an array of integers. The function should accept an integer argument indicating the number of elements to allocate. The function should return a pointer to the array.
A "generic" data structure cannot use a primitive type as its generic type.
