I know C++ super well, but for my Mechanical Engineering class I need to write some code that can ONLY be compiled in pure C, no C++
So what is the equivalent of "new" and "delete" of C++ in C?
Here is my code in C++
How do I do this in C?
struct POINT
{
float x, y;
}
int main()
{
int size;
struct POINT *Point;
size = 5;
Point = new POINT[size];
delete Point;
return 0;
}
I tried:
Point = malloc (struct POINT[size]);
Point = malloc (sizeof (struct POINT[size]));
Point = malloc (sizeof size*POINT);
Point = malloc (sizeof size*(struct POINT));
And I tried several other ways, but nothing is working, some of them compile, but they give me a memory fault error when I run them.
I would greatly appreciate any help.
Possibility
P.S. Yes I bitched at the TA for making it only straight C, but he is a dumb ass ME major who knows nothing about programming.
. Here''s two equivelants (one new and one malloc) in C/C++:
