Computer Programming Lab 24

This document discusses pointers and dynamic memory allocation in C++. It explains how to allocate memory at runtime using the new operator and deallocate it using delete. It provides an example that allocates memory for 4 integers, takes input, squares the values, and deallocates the memory. Students are assigned 3 tasks: 1) allocate memory for 10 integers, take input, sort using bubble sort, and free memory 2) allocate memory for 10 integers, take input, search for a value using linear search, and free memory 3) allocate memory for 10 integers, find min, max, average and free memory.

Dynamic Memory Allocation (DMA)

Many times, you are not aware in advance how much memory you will need to store particular information

in a defined variable and the size of required memory can be determined at run time.

You can allocate memory at run time within the heap for the variable of a given type using a special operator

in C++ which returns the address of the space allocated. This operator is called new operator.

If you are not in need of dynamically allocated memory anymore, you can use delete operator, which de-

allocates memory that was previously allocated by new operator.

Following example shows the implementation of DMA concept in C++:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int *ptr;
int i, val;
ptr = new int[4];
for(i=0;i<4;i++)
{
cout<<"Enter value at "<<i<<": ";
cin>>*(ptr+i);
}
for(int i=0;i<4;i++)
{
val = *(ptr+i);
val = val*val;
cout << val << endl;
}
delete [] ptr;
ptr = NULL;
ptr = new int[10];
for(i=0;i<10;i++)
{
cout<<"Enter value at "<<i<<": ";
cin>>*(ptr+i);
}
for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
{cout << *(ptr+i) << endl;}
delete [] ptr;
ptr = NULL;
return 0;
}

Task 1

Write a C++ program that performs the following operations:

 Dynamically allocate the memory to hold 10 integer values

 Take input from the user

 Sort the values using Bubble Sort algorithm which was already covered in Lab # 17.

 Free the memory after display the sorted data.

Task 2

Write a C++ program that performs the following operations:

 Dynamically allocate the memory to hold 10 integer values

 Take input from the user

 Take another value as input from the user to search

 Perform the searching using Linear Search algorithm which was already covered in Lab # 17.

 Free the memory after display the sorted data.

Task 3
Write a C++ program that performs the following operations:

 Dynamically allocate the memory to hold 10 integer values

 Display the minimum, maximum and average from the entered values.

 Free the memory after display the sorted data.
