I was wondering what would be the best way to take an input from a text file containing first and last names and put each line into a dynamic array. Thanks
 
Use a temporary array and read the string from the file and put it in the temporary array. Now calculate the string length of the array and allocate a new dynamic array for the string length + 1 and copy the string from the temporary array to the new dynamic array. Repeat the process.
