Thread: How to access value allocated by malloc

> I want to verify whether the dynamic memory is allocated for three integer by malloc and it store value at allocated location
Well if malloc returns a non-null pointer, then you have your memory.

Code:

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

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  int asize = 3;
  int *ptr = malloc(asize * sizeof(*ptr));
  if (ptr != NULL) {            /*Check for failure. */
    int *temp = ptr;
    int base = 10;
    for (int i = 0; i < asize; i++) {
      base += i * 3;
      printf("Storing the value %d at memory location %p\n", base, (void *)temp);
      *temp++ = base;
    }

    temp = ptr;
    for (int i = 0; i < asize; i++) {
      printf("the value at memory location %p is %d\n", (void *)temp, *temp);
      temp++;
    }
  }
  free(ptr);
  return 0;
}
