Local Variables is stored in which part of the memory?

RAM = Random Access Memory


What is the SP pointing register's default memory segment?

The default segment for SP (Stack Pointer) relative memory accesses in the 8086/8088 is SS (Stack Segment).


Where the Memory is allocated for a variable in a program?

if a variable is of value type memory is allocated on stack memory.. if it is of reference type,memory is allocated on heap memory..


What is Usage of stack register?

The stack register points to the top of the stack for the currently executing thread. The stack is a fixed-length memory allocation at the bottom of addressable memory (highest available address). The stack extends upwards into lower addresses. To keep track of the stack's usage, the stack pointer marks the top of the stack where a new frame will be pushed, decrementing the stack pointer by the required amount. When a frame is popped, the stack pointer is incremented by the frame length. The stack is typically used to call and return from functions by storing the return address of the caller, but can also be used to store a function's arguments (the values passed to it by its caller), its local variables and its exception handlers. Since the memory is allocated as soon as the thread becomes active, moving a pointer to activate and release stack frames is much quicker than requesting heap memory via the operating system.


What is hardware stack and software stack?

hardware stack - a stack implemented in and entirely managed by hardware, this stack will have dedicated memory and registers in the physical hardware of the system.software stack - a stack implemented with and entirely managed by software, this stack will use a small piece of main RAM and variables declared in the program software (making it much easier to modify if necessary than a hardware stack).

Stack can be described as a pointer Explain?

Stack is also dynamic memory, without the hassle. Dynamic memory uses pointers to check its value, free the memory, etc.

How do fixed a stack overflow at line 203?

Allocate more memory to the stack or write code that does not leave stuff on the stack.


What is Stack overflow at line?

A stack overflow is a type of buffer overflow in which an array writes memory outside of the array boundaries. The keyword here is "stack". The stack is a section in memory in which local variables and other program data are kept for future reference. When the stack gets overflown, adjacent program memory, such as variables, pointers, etc, will be overwritten and cause your program to crash.

What factors contribute to the effectiveness of stack-based memory management in computer systems?

Factors contributing to the effectiveness of stack-based memory management in computer systems include efficient memory allocation and deallocation, fast access to memory locations, and automatic memory management that helps prevent memory leaks and errors.


What does 'stack overflow at line 1776' mean?

This probably means that the stack ran out of memory when the program reached line 1776. This is in many cases caused by a function that calls itself too many times, since each function call takes up memory on the stack and that memory is not returned until the function exits.


When does the local variables gets memory in C?

When entering the function; they are on the stack.
