Lecture
This lecture covers the implementation and management of dynamic arrays in C programming. It begins with the objectives of dynamic memory allocation and a recap of dynamic arrays. The instructor explains the initialization of dynamic arrays using a vector structure, detailing the construction function that allocates memory and handles potential errors. The lecture progresses to demonstrate how to use the vector, including adding elements and managing memory through the vector_push function. The instructor emphasizes the importance of checking for null pointers and ensuring safe memory access. The lecture also discusses memory deallocation with the vector_delete function, highlighting the need for proper memory management. Additionally, the instructor explains how to enlarge the dynamic array when the allocated size is exceeded, using the vector_enlarge function. Throughout the lecture, the instructor provides practical examples and emphasizes best practices for memory management in C programming, ensuring that students understand the critical aspects of dynamic arrays and their operations.
