DMA - Sample Codes - 2

The document provides sample codes demonstrating dynamic memory allocation in C using malloc and calloc. It includes examples of creating an array, inputting values, printing elements, and calculating the sum of the array elements. The document also highlights the behavior of accessing memory after it has been freed.

Dynamic Memory Allocation

Sample Codes

malloc Example

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
int c;
int i;
int *p;

printf("Enter number of elements need to create in Array:");


scanf("%d", &c);

p = (int*)malloc(c*sizeof(int));
if(p == NULL)
{
printf("memory cannot be allocated\n");
}
else
{
printf("Enter the values to elements of array:\n");
for(int i=0;i<c;i++)
{
printf("Enter value for element %d: ", i+1);
scanf("%d", (p+i));
printf("Element %d, save to this Memory Address: %p\n", i , (void*)(p+i));
}

printf("\n");
printf("\n");

printf("Print elements of Array:\n");

for(i=0;i<c;i++)
{
printf("Element %d value: %d\n", i+1, *(p+i));
printf("Element %d, value read from this Memory Address: %p\n", i , (void*)(p+i));
}

free(p);
printf("\n");
printf("\n");

printf("calling after free\n", (void*)p);

for(i=0;i<c;i++)
{
printf("Element %d value: %d\n", i+1, *(p+i));
}
}

return 0;
}

Enter number of elements need to create in Array:3


Enter the values to elements of array:
Enter value for element 1: 10
Element 0, save to this Memory Address: 00000000000B6EA0
Enter value for element 2: 20
Element 1, save to this Memory Address: 00000000000B6EA4
Enter value for element 3: 30
Element 2, save to this Memory Address: 00000000000B6EA8

Print elements of Array:


Element 1 value: 10
Element 0, value read from this Memory Address: 00000000000B6EA0
Element 2 value: 20
Element 1, value read from this Memory Address: 00000000000B6EA4
Element 3 value: 30
Element 2, value read from this Memory Address: 00000000000B6EA8

calling after free


Element 1 value: 726016
Element 2 value: 0
Element 3 value: 721232
calloc Example
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
int c;
int i;
int *p;
int sum;

sum =0;

printf("Enter number of elements need to create in Array:");


scanf("%d", &c);

p = (int*)calloc(c, sizeof(int));
if(p == NULL)
{
printf("memory cannot be allocated\n");
}
else
{

printf("Print the total sum of array (before assigning the values):\n");


for(int i=0;i<c;i++)
{
sum += *(p+i);
}
printf("sum = %d", sum);
printf("\n");
printf("\n");

printf("Enter the values to elements of array:\n");


for(int i=0;i<c;i++)
{
printf("Enter value for element %d: ", i+1);
scanf("%d", (p+i));
printf("Element %d, save to this Memory Address: %p\n", i , (void*)(p+i));
sum += *(p+i);
}
printf("sum = %d", sum);
printf("\n");
printf("\n");

free(p);
printf("Print the total sum of array (after calling free(p)):\n");
for(int i=0;i<c;i++)
{
sum += *(p+i);
}
printf("sum = %d", sum);
}

return 0;
}

Enter number of elements need to create in Array:5


Print the total sum of array (before assigning the values):
sum = 0

Enter the values to elements of array:


Enter value for element 1: 10
Element 0, save to this Memory Address: 00000000009A6EA0
Enter value for element 2: 20
Element 1, save to this Memory Address: 00000000009A6EA4
Enter value for element 3: 30
Element 2, save to this Memory Address: 00000000009A6EA8
Enter value for element 4: 40
Element 3, save to this Memory Address: 00000000009A6EAC
Enter value for element 5: 50
Element 4, save to this Memory Address: 00000000009A6EB0
sum = 150

Print the total sum of array (after calling free(p)):


sum = 20190744
