[Dev-C++] dynamic or stack allocation ...

[Khalid El-K. <kha...@ho...>]

Hi fellows,

right now i know that memory in the stack gets allocated for once during the 
start-up of the programm, and dynamically allocated memory gets allocated 
while the programm is running.

stack memory is faster at execution.
dynamic memory is slower (the time consumed by malloc/free)

but ...

I want to know when exactly should i use stack memory and when exactly 
should i use dynamic memory ?

thanx in advance

Regards,
Khalid Al-Kary
