Can't initialize float array with {0} - visual-c++

Question

My Compiler gives runtime error when I initialize the float array in Veccreator function. I am here posting just a sample of what my code looks like.
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
#define SIZE 1000
class Vector
{
private:
float vecarray[SIZE];
public:
void VecCreator(int dimension)
{
vecarray[SIZE]= { 0 };
cout << "Enter " << dimension << " digits" << endl;
for (int i = 0; i < dimension; i++)
{
cin >> vecarray[i];
}
}
};
int main(void) {
Vector obh;
obh.VecCreator(2);
}
But it works fine with this:`
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
#define SIZE 1000
class Vector
{
private:
float vecarray[SIZE]= {0};
public:
void VecCreator(int dimension)
{
cout << "Enter " << dimension << " digits" << endl;
for (int i = 0; i < dimension; i++)
{
cin >> vecarray[i];
}
}
};
int main(void) {
Vector obh;
obh.VecCreator(2);
}
Please tell me why the first code is giving error.

Look at the second answer here:

why not do it like here below? i mean if you want to put values in there, why initially put 0 in there?
private:
float vecarray[SIZE];
public:
void VecCreator(int dimension)
{
cout << "Enter " << dimension << " digits" << endl;
for (int i = 0; i < dimension; i++)
{
cin >> vecarray[i];
}
}
