为什么 int 数组在 C++ 中未初始化为零?

I don't know whether I've misunderstood, but shouldn't the int array initialize to zeros? If not, what is special about the integer 10 which causes it to initialize to strange values?

int* primecalc(int amount) {

int* primes = new (nothrow) int [amount];

//Throw an error if we can't allocated enough memory for the array.
if (primes==0) {
cout<< "Error allocating memory.";
return 0;
}

//Otherwise, start iterating through the numbers.
else {
primes[0] = 2;
primes[1] = 3;

int p = 2;

for (int i=4;primes[amount]==0;i++) {
int j = 0;
int k = 0;

    while ((primes[j]<=floor(i/2)) && !(primes[j]==0) && (k==0)) {

        if ((i % primes[j]) == 0) {
        k=1;
        } 
    j++;
    } //end the while loop

if (k==0) {
        primes[p] = i;
        p++;

}

} //end the for loop

} //end the "else" part (this was only necessary in case memory could not be allocated)

return primes;
}

我也尝试不使用(nothrow)，结果相同.提前感谢您的帮助！

int* primes = new (nothrow) int[amount]();
