### array that uses malloc

```

#include <stdio.h>

int main()

{

 char* word = (char *)malloc(10); // creates a contiguous block of 10 chars on the heap

 // another way:

 // char* word = malloc(10 * sizeof(char* );

 //bonus: change the size of the array

 word = (char *)realloc(5);

 free(word); // now has to be freed since it is now on the heap

 return 0;

}
