Easy Dynamic Memory Allocation
Solve in Playground →

Problem Statement

Write a C program to dynamically allocate memory for an integer using `malloc`, assign a value, print it, and free the allocated memory.

Input Format

An integer value.

Output Format

Print the value allocated and stored in heap memory.

Constraints

Standard integer limits

Sample Input

123

Sample Output

123

Explanation

Use `malloc(sizeof(int))` to allocate heap memory, check for allocation success, assign value, print, and call `free` to prevent memory leaks.

Starter Code

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main() {
    int val;
    if (scanf("%d", &val) == 1) {
        // Write your code here to allocate integer dynamically using malloc
    }
    return 0;
}

Limits

  • Time Limit: 1s
  • Memory Limit: 256MB

Embedded C Programming

Intermediate

Embedded systems rely on efficient low-level programming to interact directly with hardware. In this course, you will learn how to write practical Embedded C programs used in real microcontroller-based systems. Rather than focusing only on theory, this course follows a practice-driven approach. Each lesson includes hands-on coding exercises that simulate real firmware development tasks used
