How do I pass an array to a constructor?

[svadhisthana7]

I want to pass an array to a constructor, but only the first value is passed--the rest looks like garbage.

Here's a simplified version of what I'm working on:

#include <iostream>

class board
{
	public:
		int state[64];
		board(int arr[])
		{
			*state = *arr;
		}
		void print();
};

void board::print()
{
	for (int y=0; y<8; y++)
	{
		for (int x=0; x<8; x++)
			std::cout << state[x + y*8] << " ";
		std::cout << "\n";
	}
}

int main()
{
	int test[64] = {
		0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
		1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
		2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,
		3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,10,
		4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,10,11,
		5, 6, 7, 8, 9,10,11,12,
		6, 7, 8, 9,10,11,12,13,
		7, 8, 9,10,11,12,13,14 };

	board b(test);
	b.print();

	std::cin.get();
	return 0;
}

Can someone explain why this doesn't work and how to properly pass an array? Notes: I don't want to copy the array. Also, I'm using MSVC++ 2010 Express.

I found the solution after posting to stackoverflow:

"The name of an array is the address of the first element in it.

Hence the line *state = *arr will set state[0] to arr[0].

Since right now you have defined state as int state[64];, state is const pointer of type int whose address cannot be changed.

You can change it to int *state; and then state = arr will work."
