When a function returns, is the memory allocated via malloc freed? Or can it still be accessed in the main() function using pointers?
eg.
void function(int *a)
{
a=(int *)malloc(sizeof(int));
*a=10;
}
int main()
{
int *num;
function(num);
printf("%d",*num);
return(0);
}
Can the integer stored in a be accessed by main() here?
