Copy Constructors
nWhy is the cast
important?
nIf we didn't use a cast
to change the type of the object we
are assigning to,
äwe would then
have a recursive call to the overloaded student assignment
operator!
nIn the following example,
it we had not called the checking
class' copy constructor and assignment operator from the student class copy constructor and assignment operator, we would correctly copy the student part, but not the checking and account parts.
