2nd project out.txt structure clarification (both)

12:08pm Thu 10th Oct, ANONYMOUS

Hi, After I ran the in.txt [0 2 1 3 3 2 2 0 2 1 0 2 3 0], the out.txt format was as shown in the figure. I checked all the records in the help2002 and saw that some people had a ";" after the last line, while others did not. My result did not have a ";". 1)I would like to know what the final correct format should be? Is there an accurate standard? Will I be deducted marks if the format is not standard? 2)If no memory is explicitly allocated for each PageEntry structure, will I be deducted marks? 3)If the allocated memory is not released when the program ends, will I be deducted marks? Thank you for the detailed clarifications!

Amitava needs to clarify. I'm assuming you don't need a ";" at the end.

If memory isn't allocated, then how are you able to store anything in your structure?

Most likely, it's bad practice to not free dynamically allocated (or malloced) memory.
