C++ Tutorial - Copy Constructors

This example is too long to list here but the main part is

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    phonebillrec p; // calls a default parameter "Me"
    cout << "----" << endl;
    phonebillrec p2(23.45) ;
    cout << "----" << endl;
    p2.name="Fred";

    phonebillrec p3(p2) ;
    cout << "----" << endl;
    phonebillrec p4;
    cout << "----" << endl;
    p4=p2;
    cout << "----" << endl;
    cout << "Name = " << p3.name << endl;
    return 0;
}
