Answer Posted / valli
the diffence is
1.prototype or no of arguments
calloc takes two arguments
where as malloc takes 1 argument
void *calloc(int ,int);
first argument is no of blocks required
secund argument is no of elementts in each block required
void *malloc(int);
in this total no of bytes reuired are taken as the argument
2.
calloc clears the bytes which are allocated or reserved
where malloc can not guarentee this
sorry for my poor english
