Introduction

Welcome to the Memory Manager repository. This project is an implementation of a dynamic memory manager that provides memory allocation, deallocation, and optimization services for C programs. It employs best-fit memory allocation strategies, and features custom checks to ensure the consistency of the allocated memory.

Directory Structure

The project directory structure:

• README.md: This file, containing information about the project.
• Makefile: Used for compiling the project.
• bench.c: The benchmark file used to test the performance of the memory manager.
• clint.py: Python script for linting the C code.
• mem.h: Header file containing the function prototypes for the memory manager.
• mem_impl.h: Header file containing the function implementations for the memory manager.
• mem_utils.c: Contains utility functions used in the memory manager implementation.
• memory.c: The main implementation file of the memory manager.

Usage

To use this project:
