[WinMan]

I have to create a memory allocator with buddy algorithm. Can you help me please on how I can start program?

I did not do anything yes just initialize the variable and create the struct. If you can help me how to create the allocate method i would be great. The second part is the method which will be used to free. And because i am new in C and low knowledge with pointers i do not know exactly how i have to start.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#define memory 4096

typedef struct buddy_list
{
struct buddy_list *left;
struct buddy_list *right;
int size;
char st;
}tree;

void allocate ()
{

}

void free () {

}


int main()
{
tree *root;
root = (tree *) malloc(sizeof(tree));
root -> size = 4096;
root -> st = 'F';
printf ("size %d \nstatus is %c \n", root -> size, root->st);
}
