allocate and initialize memory
Synopsis
#include <stdlib.h>
void *calloc(size_t nmemb, size_t size);
Description
The function dynamically allocates a range of memory and initial-

izes all locations to zero. The number of elements (the first argument)
multiplied by the size of each element (the second argument) is the total
memory allocated. The memory may be deallocated with the
function.
Error Conditions
The function returns a null pointer if unable to allocate the
calloc
requested memory.
Example
#include <stdlib.h>
int *ptr;
ptr = (int *) calloc(10, sizeof(int));
/* ptr points to a zeroed array of length 10 */
