Round 1 - Technical 

(1 Question)

  • Q1. Implement a malloc function.
  • Ans. 

    Implementing a malloc function involves dynamically allocating memory in C programming.

    • Use the malloc function from stdlib.h library to allocate memory on the heap.

    • Remember to check if the memory allocation was successful by checking if the returned pointer is not NULL.

    • Don't forget to free the allocated memory using the free function to avoid memory leaks.
