Malloc array

C dynamic memory allocation refers to performing manual memory management for dynamic memory allocation in the C programming language via a group of functions in the C standard library, namely malloc, realloc, calloc and free .

int row = 2, col = 3; int *arr = (int *)malloc(row * col * sizeof(int)); int i, j; for (i = 0; i < row; i++) for (j = 0; j < col; j++) *(arr + i*col + j) = i + j; Then the values of the 2-D array are displayed. Finally the dynamically allocated memory is freed using free. The code snippet that shows this is as follows.

dynamically allocated arrays To dynamically allocate space, use calls to malloc passing in the total number of bytes to allocate (always use the sizeof to get the size of a specific type). A single call to malloc allocates a contiguous chunk of heap space of the passed size.
