Question

Can I do something like this in C++ ?

//int i,Data[];
//malloc Data[];

$sscanf(line,"Data[%d]=0x%d",i,Data[i]);

Data[] is an int array and I am trying to read in random indices according to the value of ‘i’ I read in in one shot.

You can do it this way:

int index, value;
sscanf(line, "Data[%d]=%d", &index, &value);
// Check if index is within bounds of the array here
Data[index] = value;

You need the ‘&’ because sscanf takes pointers as arguments.
