The document contains two C programs that demonstrate dynamic memory allocation. The first program calculates and displays the average and highest marks of students, while the second program processes a user-input sentence to count characters, vowels, and spaces. Both programs utilize functions for input and calculations, and ensure proper memory management by freeing allocated memory.

Q1) Write a C program that: Dynamically allocates memory to store marks of n


students using malloc().

a) Takes input for each student’s marks. (Using Input Function)


b) Calculates and displays: (Using functions): Average marks, Highest marks
c) Frees the allocated memory using free().

Constraints:
Number of students (n) is entered by the user.
Use pointers to access array elements.

Code

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

void inputMarks(int *marks, int n) {

for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {

printf("Enter marks for student %d: ", i + 1);

scanf("%d", &marks[i]);

float calculateAverage(int *marks, int n) {

int sum = 0;

for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {

sum += marks[i];

return (float)sum / n;
}

int findHighest(int *marks, int n) {

int highest = marks[0];

for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {

if (marks[i] > highest) {

highest = marks[i];

return highest;

int main() {

int n;

printf("Enter number of students: ");

scanf("%d", &n);

int *marks = (int *)malloc(n * sizeof(int));

if (marks == NULL) {

printf("Memory allocation failed!\n");

return 1;

inputMarks(marks, n);

printf("Average Marks = %.2f\n", calculateAverage(marks, n));

printf("Highest Marks = %d\n", findHighest(marks, n));

free(marks);

return 0;

Output
Q2) Write a C program that takes a sentence from the user using dynamic memory
allocation. The program should: Dynamically allocate memory to store the sentence
using malloc.

a) Count and display:


Total number of characters (excluding \0)
Total number of vowels in the sentence
Total number of spaces in the sentence

b) Use a user-defined function for:


Input of sentence
Counting vowels
Counting spaces

c) Free the allocated memory at the end.

Code

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

#include <ctype.h>

void inputSentence(char *str, int size) {

printf("Enter a sentence: ");

getchar();

fgets(str, size, stdin);

}
int countVowels(char *str) {

int count = 0;

for (int i = 0; str[i] != '\0'; i++) {

char ch = tolower(str[i]);

if (ch == 'a' || ch == 'e' || ch == 'i' || ch == 'o' || ch == 'u') {

count++;

return count;

int countSpaces(char *str) {

int count = 0;

for (int i = 0; str[i] != '\0'; i++) {

if (str[i] == ' ') {

count++;

return count;

int main() {

int size;

printf("Enter maximum size of sentence: ");

scanf("%d", &size);

char *sentence = (char *)malloc(size * sizeof(char));

if (sentence == NULL) {

printf("Memory allocation failed!\n");

return 1;

}
inputSentence(sentence, size);

int vowelCount = countVowels(sentence);

int spaceCount = countSpaces(sentence);

int charCount = 0;

while (sentence[charCount] != '\0' && sentence[charCount] != '\n') {

charCount++;

printf("Total number of characters (excluding \\0): %d\n", charCount);

printf("Total number of vowels: %d\n", vowelCount);

printf("Total number of spaces: %d\n", spaceCount);

free(sentence);

return 0;
