logo Understanding Dynamic Memory Allocation in C

This course offers a concise and practical introduction to dynamic memory allocation in the C language.

You will learn:

  • Why dynamic allocation is necessary.
  • How to use the four main functions:

    • malloc() to allocate memory blocks.
    • calloc() to allocate and initialize memory blocks to zero.
    • realloc() to resize existing memory blocks.
    • free() to release dynamically allocated memory.
  • The importance of freeing memory to prevent memory leaks.

The course includes practical code examples for each function, helping you understand how to implement dynamic allocation in your own C programs.
