Memory allocation refers to the process of assigning memory to programs during runtime.
Stack allocation is done automatically and is limited in size.
Heap allocation is done manually and is larger in size.
Stack memory is used for local variables and function calls.
Heap memory is used for dynamic memory allocation.
Memory leaks can occur if heap memory is not properly managed.
Use a shared variable and synchronization mechanisms to ensure natural order printing of numbers.
Create two threads, one for printing even numbers and the other for printing odd numbers.
Use a shared variable to keep track of the current number to be printed.
Implement synchronization mechanisms like locks or semaphores to ensure only one thread can access the shared variable at a time.
Each thread should check if it is i...
