FUNCTION
<<calloc>>---allocate space for arrays
INDEX
calloc
INDEX
_calloc_r
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
void *calloc(size_t <[n]>, size_t <[s]>);
void *_calloc_r(void *<[reent]>, size_t <[n]>, size_t <[s]>);
DESCRIPTION
Use <<calloc>> to request a block of memory sufficient to hold an
array of <[n]> elements, each of which has size <[s]>.
The memory allocated by <<calloc>> comes out of the same memory pool
used by <<malloc>>, but the memory block is initialized to all zero
bytes. (To avoid the overhead of initializing the space, use
<<malloc>> instead.)
The alternate function <<_calloc_r>> is reentrant.
The extra argument <[reent]> is a pointer to a reentrancy structure.
RETURNS
If successful, a pointer to the newly allocated space.
If unsuccessful, <<NULL>>.
PORTABILITY
<<calloc>> is ANSI.
Supporting OS subroutines required: <<close>>, <<fstat>>, <<isatty>>,
<<lseek>>, <<read>>, <<sbrk>>, <<write>>.
