Answer / amar
Copy constructors is used in following cases.
1) When object is passed by values to a fucntion
2) when function returns object by value
3) When new object is created from exixting object using
overlaoded = operator.
If user has not defined its own copy constructor, compiler
synthesised constructor would be called which will do
shallow copy. So if you have pointer in your class then only
the pointer value is copied and not the contents which
pointer points to.

Design a program to input a date from user in the form day/month/year (e.g. 2/6/2000) and report whether it’s a valid date or not. The program should take account of leap years. You will need to know that a leap year is a year that is exactly divisible by 4, except that century years are only leap years if they are divisible by 400.
