Calloc a Two-Dimensional Array

Question

To make a two dimensional array, I\'m currently using the following:

int * own;

own = (int *)calloc(mem_size, sizeof(int));

for (i=0;i

        

Answer 1

Wrong type for 2-D array - well pointed out by many.

Different suggested solution.

When allocating, use the sizeof the variable and not sizeof the type. Less likely to get it wrong - easier to maintain.

//int * own;
int **own;

own = calloc(row_count, sizeof *own);
for (i=0; i
