I think I jumped something in my studies, I didn't learn about these different kind of memories and I'm now in memory allocation. 😂

In school (especially in high school) few are taught about these differences. Only later on after students have used it do they learn about it (if ever) I was very confused when my programming teacher told me to use free() on some pointer without explaining anything

This is because p and q are stack variables pointing to a "clump" of _heap_ memory malloc'ed, right? So that when the function (here, the main() function - hence, the program) goes out of scope, its stack variables are destroyed or dealloc'ed.

Yes. Those stack variables are deallocated but the malloc-ed clump of memory isn't, thus you get a memory leak

Caught me off guard, m-alloc?

@CodeVault 11 ай бұрын

It comes from "memory allocation"... so, m-alloc seems right to me. Especially since there is calloc which sounds wrong if pronounced as a full word. Pronounce however you'd like
