Improve the performance of your C programs! Learn how to use dynamic memory allocation (DMA) and the C preprocessor to optimize C programs.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

  • describe dynamic memory allocation (DMA) and associated C functions and use dynamic memory allocation for strings in C
    use dynamic memory allocation for structures in C
    use dynamic memory allocation for arrays in C
    reallocate memory in C
    describe and generate linked lists using C
    manipulate linked lists using C
    describe the C preprocessor, and contrast it with the compiler
  • use the #define directive to define macros and use #undef  to remove the definition in C programs
    use the #include directive in a C program to include files
    use conditional compilation directives in C programs
    use the #pragma directive in C
    use preprocessor directives such as _DATE_ , _TIME_, _FILE_, _LINE_
    describe  methods to debug C programs and use the assert macro
