Yes it does: int *row2 = xmalloc(sizeof(int) * (len2 + 1)); | In any case, you will _have_ to guard against accessing elements | outside the reserved memory. Why would that be needed? j belongs to [0, len2[, so j+1 is always in [0, len2+1[ which is ok for both row2 and row1. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
