Logical Copy Constructor
A logical copy constructor makes a true copy of the structure as well as its dynamic structures. Logical copy constructors come into the picture mainly when there are pointers or complex objects within the object being copied.
It can be seen from the above figure that in a logical copy constructor, a new dynamic - member variable is created for the pointer along with copying the values.
