/* prac.c, compact memory model used , bc 5.02, win xp,

  how can i allocate more than 70000 and show it printed 0 to 69999
*/

#include <alloc.h>

main()
{
 unsigned int  *p=0,n=0; /* compact memory model used : pointer auto 
coverted

 to unsigned int far *p=0 */

 p = (unsigned int *) malloc(65535*sizeof(unsigned int ) ); /* this works */
 if(!p)
 {
  puts("out a memory!");
  exit(1);
 }
 printf("%p", p);

 for(n=0;n<65535;n++)
  *(p+n) = n;

 for(n=0; n<65535; n++)
  printf(" %u\n ", *(p+n) ); /* it doesnt show count from 0 but 32768 
onwards,

  why, as such, i want it to start at 0 onwards */


 free(p);

 getch();

}
