C++ Program to Allocate Memory using new[ ] and delete[ ]

This C++ program illustrates memory allocation and de-allocation using new and delete keywords. The space for one-dimensional and two-dimensional arrays can be allocated and de-allocated using these keywords. In case of two-dimensional array, the array first allocated is that for holding pointers to further one-dimensional arrays.

Here is the source code of the C++ program illustrates memory allocation and de-allocation using new and delete keywords. The C++ program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.

```
    std::cin >> sizex >> sizey;

```
    int ** arr_2d = new int*[sizex];

    {

```
        for(int j = 0; j < sizey; j++)
```
```
            std::cin >> arr_2d[i][j];
```
```
    }
```
```
    // Deleting array completely
```
```
    for(int i = 0;i < sizex; i++)    
```
```
        delete[] arr_2d[i];
```
```
}
```

$ a.out
Enter the size of one-dimensional array 2

Enter the size of two-dimensional array 2 2
