You can't physically delete memory, you can only delete a pointer to allocated memory, which subsequently releases the memory back to the system. The operator is delete, passing the pointer as the operand. If the pointer points to an array, then you must also use the index operator [] in front of the pointer name.
int main()
{
// pointer to an int type with value 100
int* ptr_int = new int(100);
// ... use pointer ...
// release the integer
delete ptr_int;
// pointer to an array 100 int types (with undefined values)
int* ptr_int_array = new int[100];
// ... use array ...
// release the array
delete [] ptr_int_array;
return(0);
}

When you call new will it internally call delete in c plus plus?
No. Calling new returns a pointer to allocated memory. If you re-use a pointer to store the return value, then you must release the memory that it previously pointed at, either by deleting the pointer, or by maintaining a separate pointer to the original memory. Calling new will not release the current memory for you.
