Struct C++ array in function parameters not working at all - c++

Question

hello i have to do a program using an array of structures.. and i have to initialize it in a function. below i am trying, but my prototype keeps getting error "Expected primary expression".. i have followed tutorials but cant figure out what im doing wrong please help. i cant use pointers or vectors.. just basic stuff thank you for your time
struct gameCases{
bool flag = false;
int casenum;
double value;
};
int initialize(gameCases cases); //prototype
--- main()
gameCases cases[26];
initialize(cases); //call
int initialize(gameCases cases) //definition
{
double values[26] = {.01, 1, 5, 10, 25, 50,
75, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 750, 1000,
5000, 10000 , 25000, 50000, 75000, 100000,
200000 , 300000, 400000, 500000,
1000000, 2000000};
for (int i = 0; i < 26; i++)
{
array[i].value = values[i];
}
}

Answer 1

Declare the function like
int initialize( gameCases *array, size_t n );
and call it like
initialize( cases, 26 );
Or you could pass the array by reference. For example
int initialize( gameCases ( &cases )[26] );
Take into account that the function is declared as having return type int but it acrually returns nothing.

Answer 2

int initialize(gameCases cases[26]); //prototype
int initialize(gameCases cases[26]) //definition
{
double values[26] = {.01, 1, 5, 10, 25, 50,
75, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 750, 1000,
5000, 10000 , 25000, 50000, 75000, 100000,
200000 , 300000, 400000, 500000,
1000000, 2000000};
for (int i = 0; i < 26; i++)
{
cases[i].value = values[i];
}
}
and to call:
initialize(cases);
