Chapter 16, Problem 18RQE
Write a function that dynamically allocates a block of memory and returns a char pointer to the block. The function should take an integer argument that is the amount of memory to be allocated. If the new operator cannot allocate the memory, the function should return a null pointer.

Which of the following statement about pointer is TRUE?
A. A pointer variable is a variable used tostore an address

D.The unary operator * is used to find an object's address
In C programming:
Write a function printAllCourses() which receives an array of course pointers and the array’s size, then prints all courses in the array by calling printCourseRow()
6. Write a swap function, that swaps the values of two variables in main, but usepointers instead of reference parameters.7. Write a function that takes an array of ints and its size as arguments. It shouldcreate a new array that is the same size as the argument. It should set the values inthe new array by adding 10 to each element in the original array. The functionshould return a pointer to the new array. (Make sure you use dynamic memoryallocation)
can i get answers for this two sub parts. thanks

- 1. Write a function called void swap with two parameters, which will receive the addressof x and y as pointer. The function should swap the value of x and y only if x is larger thany. Print the value of x and y after the function call. 2. Write a function called double getAverage(int *array, int SIZE), whereit accept the array as pointer, and return the average of the array.

- Implement a function writeEmpToFile that takes two arguments: a struct Employee pointer and a FILE *. It should write each field in order as an appropriate type. Note that you will probably want to write a length of the name before you write the characters of the name. By doing this, when you write the load function below, you can read the length of the string and use it to malloc a buffer of the proper size to hold the name. Because of the embedded name pointer, you CAN NOT write the Employee struct as a single struct. You will need to write it out field by field. You will want to write this as a binary file, not as a text file. Implement a SAVE command in your main loop that will save all the employees out to a file. The SAVE command should ask for a file name, similar to the way your FIND command asked for a name.
