Hi gurus
I was reading FAQ
"alloca cannot be written portably, and is difficult to implement on
machines without a conventional stack."
I understand that the standard does not mandate "heap" or "stack"
I'm curious to know the implemenations which dont have stack or heap.
How do they manage local and global memory? Although this may be a
little off-topic but this will help me understand the reasons behind
the above rationale of the committee.
I hope to get interesting answers since in my limited exposure I've
always seen machines with stack n heap and someone from this worldwide
forum would get me some answers about the machines who did not have
stack and/or heap and yet ran standard C.
Thanks in advance
