Consider the following C code:#include int *assignval(int *x, int val) {*x = val;return x;}void main () {int *x = malloc(sizeof(int));if (NULL == x) return;x = assignval (x, 0);if (x) {x = (int *) malloc (sizeof(int));if(NULL == x) return;x = assignval (x, 10);}printf(“%d\n”, *x);free(x);}The code suffers from which one of the following problems: |
| A. | Compiler error as the return of malloc is not typecast appropriately |
| B. | Compiler error because the comparison should be made as x == NULL and not as shown |
| C. | Compiles successfully but execution may result in dangling pointer |
| D. | Compiles successfully but execution may result in memory leak |
