L45: Heap & stack frames

Welcome to Lecture 45 of the course "C Programming" by Prof. Nitin Chandrachoodan. Full Course: https://study.iitm.ac.in/ds/course_pages/BSCS3005.html Video Overview This lecture introduces the concept of dynamic memory allocation in C programming. We revisit stack and heap memory regions to understand why dynamic memory is essential and explore manual memory allocation techniques using malloc, calloc, and free. We also discuss how to implement multi-dimensional arrays dynamically and the considerations for managing memory during program runtime. Strengthen your understanding of pointers, memory management, and efficient data structures in your C programs.
