I was reviewing the code at the following two sites. I noticed that memory allocation "new" has been used to allocate space for the Node(s). How are they freed?. very good codes.

Memory allocated with new can be de-allocated with delete
Wikipedia Article
One thing to note is that array allocated with new[] must be deallocated with delete[]
int integer = new int;
int* pointer = &integer;
delete pointer;
my question was, why within the codes shown in the shown links, delete is not used to free the allocated memory?. how to free the allcoated memory in those codes?. maybe due a reason ... not needed ..??..!!
