👋Hey #cprogramming folks, today I’m going to explain the difference between malloc(), calloc(), free() and realloc() functions in C. These are all related to dynamic memory allocation, which means allocating memory at runtime instead of compile time. Let’s dive in!👇

🔹malloc() stands for memory allocation. It takes one argument: the number of bytes to allocate. It returns a pointer to the allocated memory or NULL if the allocation fails. The allocated memory is uninitialized, meaning it may contain garbage values.

Example: int *p = malloc(10 * sizeof(int)); // allocate memory for 10 integers
