Heap memory menager is a person, who is responsible for
dynamic memory allocation. He will maintains a internal
data structure(table) to update the information on free and
allocated memory pools. when memory is allocated using
malloc or calloc, the heap memory manager will update the
table(which tells, no of bytes allocated to a particular
pointer) and returns the base address to the application.
when application calls free() with the pointer to be freed
as a argument, free will look into the table which holds no
of bytes allocated for that pointer. And it will free those
many bytes from the base address. Again the freed memory
shall be added to a free memory pool so that other fellows
who needs memory can utilise it.
