Thanks for the great explanation on memory leaks! Going to fix my code now. I'm managing a small amount of data but I need to build good habit patterns.

I have a question does memory leak still happen when we close that program?

[undeadpresident]

I noted that the allocate function didn't free the memory after it was over, but when memory was allocated in main function it was cleared after the program was done running.

So does this mean that when a program is terminated entirely that all the memory it allocated is automatically cleared?

I'm wondering, if when I work on a large program that will inevitably will crash from time to time as I test it, if I might be left with memory left allocated on the heap.

This happened to me a month or so ago when I was messing with Opengl in Python and didn't use the proper command to clear it's buffers and a circle was left on my screen and my sound stopped working until I rebooted lol.
