  \_________________/
   
    Purpose: Implements an Integer Box, as required by the Emperor Lrrr

    An Integer-Box is a class that encapsulates an array of Integers
    The size of the array is specified at declaration.

  // Purpose: Constructs an Integer Box
	// Preconditions:
	//     's' is greater than 0;
  // Postconditions: 
  //     m_ints points to a dynamically allocated array of size 's'
  //     all elements of m_ints[] are initiallized to 'a'.

   * --------- Big 3 Member Functions -----------

  // Postconditions: m_ints[] deallocated

  // Purpose: Operator=, performs a deep copy of 'rhs' into 'this' IntBox
  // Parameters: rhs, IntBox to be copied
  // Returns: *this
  // Postconditions: *this == rhs
  const IntBox& operator=(const IntBox& rhs);

  // Purpose: Copy Constructor
  // Parameters: rhs - IntBox to be copied
  // Postconditions:  *this == rhs

   * ----- Simple Accessor Operations ----- 
   */

  // Purpose: Sets a value in the IntBox
  // Parameters: 'i' location to set
  //             'x' value to store
  // PreConditions: 'i' is between the boundaries of the IntBox 
  // Postconditions:  element 'i' in the IntBox is set to 'x'
