I would like to know the exact difference between calloc and which is more useful?? Though calloc allocates memory in the form of blocks and malloc in a single block , do they both allocate memory continuously and if there is an obstacle , would calloc be able to jump the obstacle then allocate another block in remaining heap memory. I would like clarity in the matter.
Thanks,
