malloc in c code example

Example 1: allocate memory c

// Use malloc to allocate memory
ptr = (castType*) malloc(size);
int *exampl = (int*) malloc(sizeof(int));
// Use calloc to allocate and inizialize n contiguous blocks of memory
ptr = (castType*) calloc(n, size);
char *exampl = (char*) calloc(20, sizeof(char));

Example 2: malloc in c

#include <stdlib.h>

void *malloc(size_t size);

void exemple(void)
{
  char *string;
  
  string = malloc(sizeof(char) * 5);
  if (string == NULL)
    return;
  string[0] = 'H';
  string[1] = 'e';
  string[2] = 'y';
  string[3] = '!';
  string[4] = '\0';
  printf("%s\n", string);
  free(string);
}

/// output : "Hey!"

Example 3: malloc c

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    int* memoireAllouee = NULL;

    memoireAllouee = malloc(sizeof(int));
    if (memoireAllouee == NULL) // Si l'allocation a échoué
    {
        exit(0); // On arrête immédiatement le programme
    }

    // On peut continuer le programme normalement sinon

    return 0;
}

Example 4: how to use malloc in c

int* a =(int*)malloc(sizeof(int))

Example 5: Malloc

ptr = malloc(size); //You dont need to cast

Example 6: malloc in c

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    int* string = NULL;

    memoireAllouee = malloc(sizeof(int));
    if (string == NULL) 
    {
    	return;
   		string[0] = 'H';
        string[1] = 'e';
        string[2] = 'y';
        string[3] = '!';
        string[4] = '\0';
        printf("%s\n", string);
    }



    return 0;
